The vet thinks she may be 3 years old. She is severely underweight, approx. 3 pounds. Her fur was so matted, the vet had to shave her down to her skin. She is sweet, gentle, and all she needed was love. Someone could not or would not take care of her, so they took her to an unknown neighborhood and let her out. When I found her, she was hiding in a bush in a thunderstorm. The vet said he is seeing more and more of this in this economy.

It is well researched and documented that people who commit horrible acts of cruelty on other humans started on animals. It only seem logical to stop them in their tracks by giving punishment punishment that fits the crime toward any living, fearing and feeling creature. Rehabilitation should start with the first crime of cruelty to animals as well as punishment.

Make animal abuse a felony crime in all 50 states, with huge fines and harsh punishment(s), and prevent those convicted of animal cruelty from ever being around or owning another pet.
