A heartbroken girl has issued an emotional plea to help trace a teenage yob who killed her kitten by drop-kicking it 'like a rugby ball' a distance of 40ft.
Tia Duke, seven, has been in floods of tears since the pack of thugs were seen manhandling pet Tasmin before one took a run-up and booted the defenceless animal into the air.
A horrified neighbour saw the incident and alerted Tia's mother Julie who then found the stricken animal lying in a crumpled heap in the gutter.
Devon and Cornwall police branded those responsible for the attack 'sick and cruel'.
A spokesman added: 'Officers were called to an address after a resident saw a young man 'pick up a cat and drop kick it into the air as if it were a rugby ball.
'The witness heard the cat screech and land about 40ft away.
'This was a sick and cruel attack on a defenceless animal and somebody's much loved pet.'
The offender is described as a white male, aged 15 or 16. It is believed he was one of a group of four youths.
However as many of us know, kittens and other animals are not on the top of the police agenda, but we also know that these yobs have no doubt done this many times before, and no doubt will continue to do this to other animals within the community.
LETS MAKE SURE THIS KITTENS HORRIFIC DEATH IS NOT FOGOTTEN AND KEEP THE PRESSURE ON THE POLICE & LOCAL COMMUNITY TO FIND THE YOBS, BEFORE THEY DO THIS TO ANOTHER DEFENCLESS ANIMAL....
FOR THOSE AROUND OF YOU ARROUND THE GLOBE, PLEASE READ,SIGN AND SHARE.
FOR THOSE OF YOU IN THE UK OR KNOW SOMEONE THAT LIVES WITHIN THE UK, PLEASE SHARE THIS PETITION WITH THEM, EVENTUALLY IT WILL FILTER TO PEOPLE WITHIN THE LOCAL COMMUNITY OF WHERE THIS HAPPEND...AND THEN MAY PROMPT SOMEONE WHO KNOWS ABOUT THIS TO CONTACT THE POLICE.
