A story on animal torture

Hi I found this online while doing my research thought I'll share it with you...

"A Pennsylvania dog groomer has been ordered to stand trial on animal cruelty charges for selling “gothic kittens” with ear, neck and tail piercings.
Holly Crawford’s home outside Wilkes-Barre was raided Dec. 17 after the county Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals got a tip.
A prosecutor says Crawford inflicted pain on the cats, which were listed for sale for hundreds of dollars on the Internet. Crawford’s attorney says state law says nothing about piercing cats or docking their tails.
At a preliminary hearing Tuesday, Wilkes-Barre District Judge Paul Hadzick called it a gray area that needs to be decided by a trial judge or jury."


This story is unbelieveable but unfortunately is true. After doing everything the guy who does the piercing says "Trust me, the cat didn’t feel any pain. I used ice cubes and put a potato behind his ear and heated up the needle with a Bic lighter before I jabbed it through".

As if he could understand what the poor cat was going through. Such people in my suggestion should be tortured and tortured until they realise that torturing an animal is a crime and is no less than breaking a law.
