According to SPCA manager Vicky Finnemore, animals are surrendered into their care for several reasons.
“There are people who want to adopt pets for the wrong reasons. Our paperwork process, however, determines whether their intentions are pure and for the right reasons. “This poor animal was beaten over the head with a blunt object. His skull was fractured, and both eyes were swollen shut. Luckily, an MRI scan revealed no brain damage.
Commenting on the case at the time, Finnemore said they commended the complainant for reporting this animal cruelty crime.“When prosecuting alleged animal abusers, intent needs to be proved. This is often difficult because, in many cases, the only witnesses are the animals involved.
