On Friday last week I was out for a walk, trying to make the most of the few snowless days left for the year. As I got closer to my house I saw some kids(ages 7-8) playing. It looked like they were throwing a stuffed animal against a wall as high as they could to see who could throw the highest. Once I got closer the "stuffed animal" meowed, they had been throwing a live cat against the wall!

I ran over and picked the cat up and started yelling at the little miscreants. I must admit I got a lot of satisfaction when a couple of them started crying. I took the cat home to see what I could do for it. It has obviously been homeless for a while, it was skin and bones. It didn't have the strength to walk and from what I could tell it was blind. I called the town vet but he was gone for the weekend. It died in my lap about two hours after I got it home.

I went to the house the kids were playing near and was able find and tell one of the kids dads about what had happened, he flipped out! He said he would track down who else was involved and tell their parents.

I'm still furious about it all, and its been three days, I have such a strong desire to find these kids and throw them against a wall.
