Meet Adam


No, that's not a silly sweater he's wearing, they are bandages. Adam is a three month old kitten that was locked in a cage and set on fire by two teenage girls in Santa Rosa. He lost his ears, his tail and over 40% of his skin.

California has some of the most lenient animal abuse laws in the country. The absolute maximum punishment for an animal cruelty case like this is 3 years in prison and a $20,000 fine, if the offenders are charged with a felony. In most cases the charges will be plead down to a misdemeanor, and the offenders will spend less than 2 years in jail. In contrast, in Oklahoma and Louisiana the maximum sentence is 10 years and $5,000-$25,000 in fines.

What can you do about it? You can sign the petition and make sure that animal abusers are charged with felonies, not just misdemeanors. Signing the petition will also help to make laws that double the maximum jail time for animal abuse charges. Six years may not seem like much, but it's a lot better than three.

SIGN THE PETITION!

I'm sorry if you don't care and you see this a billion times. This is VERY important to me, and I want to do all I can to help this cat and so many more like him. While yes, this is a copy and paste job, I've spent the last 5 hours creating this and posting it everywhere I can think of. I tried to keep the image small enough so I wouldn't have to put it under a cut, because I think it's too important, but if you're really got a stick in your craw about it, I will cut it.
Just for the record; No, I'm not some crazy PETA fag, I'd just like to see some justice done.
