No Excuse for Cruelty

Share via

The letter from Darcy Sinise was heartbreaking. My heart goes out to her and her fiance at the tragic loss of their magnificent animal.

Unfortunately, this is yet another incident of growing animal cruelty and human ignorance and stupidity. There is no excuse for it. To lose an animal that is so greatly loved is no different than losing a child. There are no words to ease the pain.

I experienced a similar act of this low mentality last month when someone drove by and shot my cat in his own back yard. It was Friday the 13th and, presumably, this was considered a fun thing to do.

My cat was more fortunate than Cisco. After a frightening few days, he was on the road to recovery, although the vet was unable to remove the bullet.

There isn’t much hope for any of us if this kind of mentality is allowed to thrive.
