A Bronx man brutally tortured his cat to death during an alleged occult ritual – and then bragged about it online. He posted horrifying videos and photos of the abuse, showing a cat surrounded by symbols drawn on his apartment walls. Even worse, he later claimed he would repeat the act on Halloween and threatened animal lovers who called for his arrest.
Sign now to demand that this man receive mandatory mental health counseling and a lifetime ban on animal ownership.
Neighbors described hearing screams and strange noises at all hours, and police later found blood and disturbing messages scrawled on the walls. Veterinarians and animal welfare groups were forced to warn each other to keep him from adopting more animals. This is not only a case of extreme cruelty, it's a clear sign of severe psychological distress and potential danger to others.
Violence toward animals is often an early warning sign of deeper issues. Without intervention, it can escalate. Mandatory counseling could help prevent future tragedies – and a permanent ban on animal ownership would ensure that no other creature suffers at his hands.
Sign now to demand justice for this innocent cat, mandatory counseling for the abuser, and stronger protections for all animals in New York.
