What did animals do to deserve such abuse? First, there was the story of Matthew Weatherspoon, who allegedly stabbed a bulldog puppy who nipped him — after which our Shmuck of the Week patrol discovered another twelve recent cases of dog stabbings. And now comes word of a kitten being tossed out a car window in Lafayette. The kitten should be fine, but that doesn’t make stories like these any less appalling.
