The woman plans to donate the money (or some of it?) to animal shelters/charities...

That's pretty cool. Too bad about her cat though :( (But one life lost could save many if she actually donates the money.)

:nigel: Cheers.

Seems to me if the dog had a history of getting out, her cat should have been inside.

I'm I going to veg*n hell for saying $45,000 is way too much? That's like a year's wages.

How about all the wild voles, moles, mice, rats, lizards, birds, etc. that the cat mauled before being mauled by the dog?

Price on a cat, price on a kid.

If it had been a CHILD mauled by the dog, everyone would be up in arms that the $um wasn't enough...

:stinkeye:

I don't agree or disagree. I was just posting the story.

"Mr Gray, who has served three weeks in jail and three months under house arrest for animal control violations, insisted his dog was being looked after by a neighbour at the time."


Sure sucks to be her...
