“Kostopol, ‘Sova’ district. Time and again, unreasonable neighbors are shooting at cats with pneumatic weapons. This summer, our pet was killed; an X-ray showed three bullets, one of which was lodged in its spine, and the cat did not survive. We have another kitty, who is very domestic and only stays in our yard, but she also has two bullets inside her. And today, our young kitten, who is only 7 months old and doesn’t wander off to other yards, only goes out in our yard for a few minutes, came back with a wounded paw, very likely from a bullet.
Is there any way to influence this situation? I haven’t caught anyone in the act, but I have small children who also play in the yard, so it’s very frightening to think about what could happen?”
At the moment, there have been no comments from either the police or local authorities.
