Humane society officer shot dead five kittens next to mother and her four young children after promising that the cats ‘would go to kitty heaven’
An Ohio Humane Society officer has sparked an outrage among animal lovers and activists after shooting dead a feral cat and her litter in front of a horrified homeowner and within earshot of her small children.
Part-time Humane Society Officer Barry Accorti, a veteran of the North Ridgeville Police Department, responded to a home on Vista Lake Way Monday afternoon after a woman reported that there were feral cats living in a woodpile and causing problems. According to the mother of four, Accorti informed her that animal shelters were full, and that the cats ‘would be going to kitty heaven.’
