This is great. People in California I bet you feel good about this one. Hope the other states wake up.

Women’s shelters need to take in women and children with their pets. Women stay in domestic violence situations because there is no one to take care of their pets. They know that they will be the ones to take the brunt of the violence if left alone with the abuser.

Any human who kills a pet in this way should be shot to death on sight by the police just like they shoot “Mad dogs”. Thank you law makers in California for an intelligent and long overdue decision.

I don’t doubt that these abusers must have maimed many pets when they were children themselves.
