Gary Bassett, Mercy's owner, must have felt so badly ashamed for abusing this poor 4 month old kitten and then took his own life.

The animal was later euthanized.
*sorrow* :*(
I believe to the depths of my heart that there is a special place in hell for people who hurt animals this way. :*(
I would bet the bank that somewhere there's a human body buried on that property...

What a sad soul. Animal abuse - pet abuse, especially - is a sign that the person has some deep, deep issues going on.
It's a shame that this guy couldn't manage to man up, take the consequences, get help for his problems, and lead a life that God would be proud of.

These little animals are trusting, helpless and friendly. To then abuse them as described in the articles on this case....I can’t describe it as anything but true evil. Mental illness, hard luck, bad childhood...blah blah blah. This comes from the darkest, most vile place and there is no excuse for it.

I’m sorry, but humans, especially ones not found criminally liable for anything, are worth more to God than any animal.

Not everyone’s qualified to be a human. It takes not only the accident of birth but also some effort.

This story get weirder and weirder.
Part of the cats head was shaved (what the heck?), and he tried to drown her in the toilet. Then he loses his temper with the cat, and basically stomps her to death.
My gut tells me was shaving the cat for some creepy reason, and the cat didn’t like it, so at first he tried to drown it? silence it? in the toilet? and when the cat must have made its displeasure known, he lost his temper with it.
I have no idea what happened here, and I’m not sure I want to.

No great loss. People with this kind of evil nature sometimes move on to incredible cruelties practiced on people. The world is ever so slightly cleaner now.
