Cat Cruelty in Montana
Debbie Trujillo
United States:
> KITTEN SAVED IN BILLINGS CRUELTY CASE: "Rocky," a kitten in
> Billings, MT under foster care, was abused by two teenage
> boys who brutally beat and kicked him until he was
> motionless. Rocky was treated for a punctured abdomen and
> lost a leg but will survive this terrible ordeal thanks to
> the efforts of Dr. Suzanne Roth, the veterinarian at Granite
> Peak Veterinary Hospital who treated Rocky, and "Help For
> Homeless Pets" (the local animal rescue group now trying to
> find him a home). The boys who nearly killed Rocky were
> caught, thanks to the perseverance of Casey Hafner, the
> Billings police officer who acted quickly to follow up leads
> and never gave up because he understood the serious nature
> of animal abuse. The link between cruelty to animals and
> violence to people has been well established. Animal abuse
> is most often committed by juveniles who have experienced
> domestic violence. Without intervention, victims of
> domestic violence often repeat the cycle of abuse. If you
> would like to thank police officer Casey Hafner for his
> excellent work on behalf of Rocky, you can write to: Chief
> Ron Tussing, Billings Police Department, P.O. Box 1178,
> Billings, MT 59103.
I would like to encourage everyone to write to Officer Casey Hafner at the
address above to thank him for his work on behalf of Rocky. Thank you.
