Alleycats do 12 feet ALL THE TIME!
I’m not talking about what our esteemed (cough) legal system will find in this case. I believe you’re correct unfortunately. These punks had SOMETHING to do with it though, so I hate the fact the “poor, innocent victims’” are gonna make money over their “friend” AND the dead cat’s body. I have faith in them though, they’ll wear all their newfound bling in the wrong neighboorhood one day and meet up with a different kind of predator.
