A cat was recently found in the cold after someone twisted a wire tightly around it's neck and left it for dead.
The calico cat, named Faith by rescue workers, had several lacerations on her head when she was brought to Heavenly Paws Animal Shelter in York County, Pennsylvania for veterinary attention.
Faith's injuries were treated, and a round of antibiotics started before she was allowed to go home with a foster care volunteer.
Over the course of only a few hours, Faith's condition deteriorated significantly.
She began to pace in circles and bump into furniture, showing signs of severe brain trauma.
By the time a veterinarian was able to see her, the cat was pronounced brain dead and had to be euthanized.
A necropsy revealed that the cat had a fractured skull and three distinct areas of blunt force trauma
Veterinarians suspect that the blows were caused by a hammer, and that the wire was used to hold the cat in place while someone bludgeoned it.
Aside from the obvious signs of abuse, the cat was in otherwise good health, suggesting that it was someone's pet.
This crime demonstrates extreme cruelty and is a shock to the entire community of Hanover County, PA.
In order to ensure that Faith receives justice, it is important that the person responsible is punished to the fullest extent of the law.
Please sign the petition letter to the Animal Control Officer to demand a harsh punishment for the person responsible, which will help deter similar crimes in the future.
