Letter: Monsters vs. animals

The recent event of yet another kitten being the victim of a human’s rage has reached me all the way up in North Carolina.

I am sickened to hear that this has happened once again to a helpless, defenseless animal in Collier County.

Wake up, Collier County officials, and this time do something about this trend. It is time for serious action to be instituted against these monsters who think they can get away with such heinous actions.

Years ago a tiny gray-and-white kitten named Boots was treated to similar abuse and that man received nothing more than probation with no jail time. Luckily Boots survived his trauma but, unfortunately, this kitten did not.

What kind of message has that sent to the sick, sorry souls who think they can also get away with such behavior?

I deplore the lack of progress in Collier to stop such abuse of poor defenseless animals who have done nothing to warrant such treatment.
