Stop Repeat Animal Abusers From Continuing to Harm Pets

Target: Cayuga County District Attorney Brittany Grome Antonacci, New York State

Goal: Implement an animal abuse registry to prevent convicted abusers from owning pets.

Repeat animal abusers are continuing to harm pets even after prior convictions, causing unnecessary suffering to innocent animals. These individuals are able to acquire new pets, perpetuating a cycle of neglect and abuse that endangers the well-being of animals in the community.

Despite prior convictions for animal cruelty, these repeat offenders face few barriers to obtaining new animals, allowing them to continue their harmful actions unchecked. The lack of a system to track and prevent these individuals from owning pets leaves vulnerable animals at risk of further mistreatment.

To protect animals from repeat abusers, it is crucial to implement measures that prevent convicted individuals from owning pets. Establishing an animal abuse registry would help shelters and pet adopters identify those with a history of cruelty, ensuring animals are placed in safe homes. Demand that Cayuga County enact this registry to safeguard animals from future harm.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear DA Brittany Grome Antonacci,

We are deeply concerned about reports that repeat animal abusers in Cayuga County are allegedly continuing to harm pets even after prior convictions. The lack of a system to prevent these individuals from acquiring new animals poses a significant risk to the well-being of pets in our community.

Allowing convicted animal abusers to own pets reportedly enables a cycle of neglect and cruelty to persist. Innocent animals are subjected to unnecessary suffering, and the community’s trust in animal welfare protections is undermined. An animal abuse registry would serve as a crucial tool to prevent these individuals from obtaining new pets.

We urge you to take immediate action to implement an animal abuse registry in Cayuga County. By publicly listing individuals reportedly convicted of animal cruelty, shelters and pet adopters can make informed decisions to protect animals. Please consider the gravity of this issue and act to safeguard vulnerable animals from further harm.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

  1. It needs to be a national register. And put online.

  2. A National Register put on ;line is a terrific idea. Also a life long ban placed on an individual and shown on their driver’s license is a good idea. Anything to help prevent these animal abusers continuing their abuse. I feel strongly what is done to an animals needs to be done to their abuser. Our laws are broken, not enforced, and not effective. This must change. Living beings deserve to live their lives and abusers deserve nothing at all. Then dot do the abuse over again, that’s a red flag and should mean automatic death! Let’s do something to stop all this cruelty and abuse. No kids, teens or anyone any age can be allowed to walk away form such a crime. This will continue until our laws are far more effective! Make it so!

  3. Oh it needs to flag up across all documentation, including ones submitted for jobs or volunteering; there have been a couple of quite recent cases of depraved scum embedding themselves in animal related work to satisfy their perversion, including the recent case of some nasty poisonous little turd who infested an animal shelter so he could torture kittens to death(the case was on this site very recently) so there cannot be any dark corners for them to hide their depravity. Also its an important safeguarding matter; animal abuse sadists often graduate onto vulnerable humans so full disclosure on employment certifications would prevent them trying to gain access to children, the elderly or learning disabled or profoundly physical disabled, who could well be viewed as abuse outlets by them. Animal abuse needs to be an indelible mark on character, in the way that sexual offences are, with the sex offenders register.

  4. Animal abusers are the filth of the earth and should be recognized with an on line registry. They don’t deserve to be near animals. They deserve the same treatment as they inflict on innocent animals.
