After a woman in Hong Kong trapped her poor cat in a washing machine and recorded its horrified response, she posted videos to social media in an attempt to go viral. Luckily, she is facing punishment from local authorities as this was a clear case of abuse towards a domestic animal. But while her phone and washing machine were both confiscated, somehow, she is still in possession of the cat she tortured.

The woman in question continues to insist that she is a 'cat lover,' and that she only uploaded the video because she thought it was 'funny.' But any person who genuinely loves cats would never treat one this way – and there is absolutely nothing funny about animal abuse. In the video, the cat is seen clearly terrified and suffering, confused and trying to escape. Why is this poor cat still living in this woman's custody?
If the criminal justice system was actually focused on protecting animals and doing what is best for them, the cat's removal from this woman's home would have been the first priority. In fact, the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is well-suited to care for this cat and ensure it gets the love and tenderness needed after such a violent interaction with a previous owner.
Help us put pressure on Hong Kong authorities! We must ensure that this cat is taken to safety and out of the hands of an animal abuser.
