We see too many acts of animal cruelty & not enough legal action taken against those committing the crimes. There are too many death's of cats & dog's especially with people only receiving suspended sentences & banned from owning pets, these people should be tried treated & charged with neglect, physical harm towards an animal, gbh, abh, murder of an animal & sentenced to serve time in prison like any other person who committs a crime against a human being.
