Woman throws cat into a garbage can
For more, see this story and an expanded video with interviews.
This video of a woman in England placing a cat in a garbage can went viral shortly after it appeared. And because of that, the culprit was caught. She's facing an interview with the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
The cat, a young tabby named Lola, is fine, by the way. The bin was in front of her owners' home and, after 15 hours, they finally heard her cries and rescued her on Sunday morning.
The owners had recently installed a surveillance camera outside their home in Coventry when a series of thefts moved through their neighborhood. The video attracted tens of thousands of viewers after it was posted.

Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.

Josh Grossberg grew up with the usual array of animals: goldfish, dogs, hamsters, parakeets and turtles. He now owns the loudest dog in the South Bay(Video: Rocket the Dog) and is the least popular person on his block. He spends his free time in dog parks, pet shops and always has an extra plastic bag in his pocket just in case. He also has a cat.

That was horrible! The cat was so friendly too! That woman has real mental issues. Makes me wonder what else she has done when she thought no one was watching.
