I am furious just now [View all]

Sat down with lunch then went online to read the local paper and was greeted with this:

Firefighters rescue box of kittens thrown off bridge onto icy Tuscarawas River

PORT WASHINGTON ‒ If cats have nine lives, three stranded kittens used up at least one of theirs after a harrowing experience — stranded on the Tuscarawas River ice.

Shortly before 3:30 p.m. Friday, Tuscarawas County Sheriff's deputies found a box of kittens, which had been thrown off the St. Clairsville bridge, according to a press release from Arrowhead Joint Fire District Chief Steven M. Wright.

That left the kittens in the middle of the river, stranded on deteriorating ice. Mild temperatures had melted plenty of snow and ice in the region.

I really hope they find who did this terrible act and punish them to the fullest extent of the law. NO exuse for this at all!
