Target: Todd Spitzer, District Attorney of Orange County, California

Goal: Prosecute and seek maximum penalties against individual who reportedly threw a wounded cat in the trash.

A surveillance video apparently revealed a man removing a severely injured cat from a trash bag, only to toss the animal into a dumpster. The cat, later identified by a caretaker, reportedly languished there for nearly 15 hours and was rescued just before the dumpster was scheduled for pickup. Authorities have arrested a suspect for alleged felony cruelty, and the cat—called BooBoo—is currently receiving intensive medical care.

The disturbing nature of this incident has sparked public outrage. Witness accounts and the footage purportedly depict an act of disregard for a suffering creature, placing it in immediate danger with no chance of escape. Advocates highlight how such acts of alleged cruelty can have lasting consequences and signal a deeper apathy towards animals who rely on humans for their basic needs.

Swift and forceful legal action may help protect countless other defenseless animals. If proven guilty, holding those responsible fully accountable can send a resolute message that society will not tolerate brutal treatment of living beings. This demand: ensure that all available measures are used to seek justice for this cat and to prevent similar cases of reported cruelty.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear Attorney Spitzer,

We write to express our deep concern over reports of a grievously injured cat removed from a trash bag and discarded in a dumpster, where it was left for more than half a day. Fortunately, the cat was discovered just minutes before the dumpster was due to be emptied, sparing it from an even more tragic outcome.

Such apparent callousness toward a vulnerable creature undermines the laws and values that protect both animals and the public. When our most defenseless living beings are treated with such recklessness, it risks fostering an environment of impunity where cruelty can flourish unchecked.

We respectfully request a thorough investigation into these allegations and the full pursuit of any legal consequences warranted by the evidence. An unwavering commitment to enforcing animal welfare statutes is vital to protecting the innocent and deterring future acts of reported cruelty.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

    What is happening in America, it seems as though animal abuse, animal torture and animal killings has reached epidemic proportions???

    • UncommonSensesc says:

      I think it’s because these slack-ass prosecutors and judges do little to nothing to the evil bastards doing this. There is no real deterrent, so they have no reason to stop. Probation and a $100 fine are not deterrents. Start shooting them in the head and leave them for buzzard food and this will stop.

  2. Throw this sorry assed excuse for a human being into a dumpster where they belong.

  3. Maria Lavorato says:

    This monster thought it was acceptable to discard a sweet innocent living being like trash! How can this vile human have any benefit to society except to be a danger!

    The judicial system needs to prosecute this case as a Felony with intent to kill. BooBoo was moments away from death! Send the message that animal cruelty will not go unpunished!!!!

    God’s healing hand little buddy……

  4. Carolyn Ecton says:

    Todd Spitzer, District Attorney of Orange County, California, is this acceptable in your county? Please send a clear message to constituency that you will prosecute this deed and any others like it.

  5. Dump this sicko in the trash

  6. Julia Edinger says:

    FIND THAT “EVIL BEING”‼️ GIVE THAT PIECE OF 💩 THE SAME TREATMENT,,,, PERFECT PUNISHMENT‼️

  7. This pathetic excuse for a human being should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and never allowed near an animal ever again!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH SOME PEOPLE???????!!!!!!!!!

  8. The evil monster who did this must hang! Kill that sick sadistic bastard and make him suffer!!!

  9. RITA VAN EECKENRODE says:

    WHAT A BEAUTIFUL CAT. FIND THAT MONSTER WHO DID THIS AND GIVE HIM/HER THE SAME TREATMENT. NO MERCY AT ALL.

  10. I SAW THE VIDEO ON KTLA, I TELL YOU A 40 CALIBER WOULD’VE BEEN IN THIS ASSHOLES FUTURE AND HE’D BE THE ONE IN THE DUMPSTER…

    MY HEART IS WITH THIS SWEET KITTY AND GETS WELL SOON.

  11. Daniela Freitas Fraser says:

    No words …

  12. I sure hope BooBoo makes a complete recovery sadly the mind will take alot longer after this sickening act of cruelty endured even before being locked in a dark cold nasty dumpster. Throw the book at this evil person then lock them up animal cruelty is a symptom of something much deeper!

  13. So surely if there’s a video it must be possible to identify this deranged freak and arrest him. Release his name and his address and hope for some vigilante justice I find it hard to believe that these crimes go unpunished in California. If that kind of cruelty happened here in Scotland that filth and it’s family would be taken care of. Why is America so pathetic and tragic.

  14. Joseph Kenosky says:

    Execute the perpetrator(s)

  15. Since you refuse to publish names, the asshole’s name is Joseph Harrison Parker, in Orange County CA. Pled not guilty. Anyone in California, find this fucker and get revenge. The cat had a broken jaw, broken blood vessels in the eye and a concussion. Someone out in California, please do the same to this asshole

    • Cecily Colloby says:

      My sentiments exactly, Gus.

    • If I get there I will kill him. Murder I’m trying to make legal in all states

      • Marlene De- Abel says:

        Yes – unfortunately I don’t live anywhere near this shitbag but perhaps someone else does??? Go fund me page for animal abusers and justice.

    • Marlene De-Abel says:

      How can this scumbag plead not guilty when he was caught on video – c’mon give me a break! Just saw the photo of the poor little cat – her eye looks terrible. Please someone track him down and do some justice (he lives in Orange County).

      • This bastard can plead NOT GUILTY because he knows NOTHING will happen to him! As with all the other bastards. And why? Because the Judges, recorders, barristers etc are scared of any reprisals afterwards and certainly DO NOT want their cosy lifestyles upsetting. But if they heard the Judge say” The punishment must fit the crime.You will be given THE SAME TREATMENT as you inflicted on this innocent animal. You would see ( and maybe even smell) the bastards ‘ shitting’ themselves where they stood in the dock! Because they are all fucking cowards. The legal system really needs to grow a very big pair of balls and get the job done. Then,any repercussions would be null and void as the bastard ‘perps’ would be very DEAD. But doubt this will ever happen so again, up to us Animal Activists, Lynch mobs, Vigilante groups to help these animal torturing fuckers on their way!!
        J.W.

  16. FIND THIS CRUEL & ABUSIVE ASSHOLE WHOM I JURED THIS GORGEOUS, INNOCENT, DEFENSELESS CAT AND THROWING THIS CAT INTO A DUMPSTER!! INJURY THIS CRUEL AND ABUSIVE ASSHOLE THRN THROW HIM INTO A DUMPSTER WHERE HE LANDS ON HIS HARD HEAD AND IS UNABLE TO GET OUT OF THIS DUMPSTER MAKING IT HIS CELL UNTIL HIS DEATH!!! A PRISON CELL IS TOO GOOD FOR THIS CRUEL AND ABUSIVE ASSHOLE!!!!

  17. No animal deserves to be a victim of DEHUMANIZED, DESENSITIZED and MENTALLY-DERANGED SADISTIC PSYCHOPATHS!!
    NO animal-abuser should get away with such a horrific crime.
    LAWMAKERS, stop these crimes by establishing harsh punishments for animal abuse! It’s your duty as humans.
    Tormenting, neglecting and killing animals has a brutalizing effect on our society and mankind as a whole.
    This pathological monster must be severely punished. He must also be forbidden from coming near animals ever again.
    SET a PRECEDENT, and punish to the full extent of the law!
    MAX JAIL or DEATH PENALTY for this sadistic scumbag!

  18. Agree all comments do the same to that c**t. Justice now. No excuse take to shelter. Torture this bastard.
