By the time rescuers found him,
Bink the cat's temperature was 103 degrees. This wasn't from illness; it was
from cruel, clear neglect.Bink had been left in a parked car, baking in a Florida Big Lots parking lot, from morning til night -- and
he would've likely died from the exposure had he not been saved in time.Sign the petition to demand justice for sweet Bink!Florida can be oppressively hot -- so imagine what it was like inside of a hot car. On even what some would call a pleasant day of 75 degrees, the interior of a car "can reach 110 degrees in just 30 minutes."
Oven-like, baking in the heat coming off of the black asphalt of the parking lot, it was probably like hell for poor Bink. Not only was Bink left to suffer in this brutal environment, but he was left without water -- no opportunity for relief.
In Florida, it is illegal to leave an animal without sufficient food and water, and in an enclosed space without airflow. These are all things Bink was subjected to, and his cruel owners must be held accountable.
Sign the petition and demand that the people who did this to Bink are banned from ever owning an animal ever again!
