The number of animal abuse cases that have been reported recently is getting higher and higher as days pass by. Usually, not many people would have the gut to confront the dangerous perpetrators who commit this kind of abuse because they are afraid that these kinds of people would be so violent and also full of rage. A different situation happened with this woman in Penang who is brave enough to confront the perpetrators that have been so cruel towards many cats. She has successfully saved a cat by sadly begging an old man who was about to allegedly kill it.
A short video regarding the situation where a woman was confronting a cruel old man who is suspected of killing cats in their area has been posted on the official Malaysia Animal Association Facebook social media platform. This particular incident is believed to have happened in Island Glades, Penang on the 17th of November 2020. In the short video that got posted, the old man can be seen holding a cat by its hind legs and trying to put it in a plastic bag.
“A stray cat was severely injured after it was suspected of getting shot with an air-gun. Two shots were fired based on two bullet holes on the cat’s body. The cat was rushed to a nearby veterinary clinic by a witness who saw the incident. The witness had argued with the suspect who can be seen trying to hurt the cat and she urged the perpetrator to release it. He finally complied with the witness’s insistence and the cat was immediately sent to a nearby vet”.
As we can see in the video, the cruel old man finally hands over the poor cat after the woman had insisted and also cried towards him for the cat. The cat looks so weak due to the painful injuries caused by the old man. As for now, the cat is, fortunately, being reported in a stable condition even though after all severity of the damage it experienced. Doctors are still monitoring the cat closely to ensure that it survives.
For the cruel old man, Malaysia Animal Association would definitely ensure that the authorities have been informed and will be investigating into this matter.
