Sign Petition to Prosecute Teen Who Killed a Cat by Throwing Her Against a Wall

AnimalPetitions.org
September 19, 2016


An Emirati teenager was caught on video throwing a cat against a wall which resulted in the animal's death.

The suspect's mother has spoken out, expressing her son's severe hatred toward cats.
She said he has told her that when he sees one he wants to kill it.
She blames it on a cat the family had when her son was younger, who her son thought was possessed.

This sort of animal abuse cannot go unpunished, and a full investigation needs to be launched.

Animal abuse cases are punishable by law in Ajman, where the crime took place, by fining the perpetrator $5,000 or placing him in prison for up to a year.

Animal welfare workers are trying to promote the importance of investigating these crimes, but it's up to law enforcement to see that justice is served.

Demand that police fully investigate and prosecute the teenager, who hates cats so much that he may have brutally murdered one.

And to never be allowed near a cat ever again. Even if he is monitored the rest of his sorry life.

If I had my way he'd be hitting a wall with his body just as hard as the cats he murdered hit it himself a few times until he decided killing cats just isn't worth the trouble he has to endure to keep on doing it

I hate people that abuse animals and kids and anyone.I just hate abusers.because ultimately abusing and killing something weaker than you like a cat is a choice.a deliberately made choice. People tend to want to forget that.

It is a sickening story, isn't it?

I hope he gets at least 6 months in jail..and a fine.

ANYTIME a child of any age is caught abusing animals the sentence needs to be intense mandatory therapy because those are the people who if they do not get help are going to be doing it to other humans in the future. It has been recorded over and over that people who hurt others did it to animals in the beginning. Both of those children need to have therapy. I have this vision of this boy being an angry teenager and out on Halloween one night with his friends and sees some kid dressed up as a cat and you draw your own conclusion.
