Man’s anger over death of poisoned cat

- BY MIRROR REPORTER

Pet cat O’malley A MAN has hit out after his cat was poisoned “by scum”.

Photograph­er Kevin Mcauley came home to find the pet sick but despite a visit to the vet it could not be saved.

It is understood the incident may be one of a number of poisonings of pets in the Ballycastl­e area of Co Antrim.

In a Facebook post, Mr Mcauley said the cat, named O’malley, was “murdered by scum”.

He added: “I appeal to pet owners to be aware of this trash who are roaming the streets laying boobytraps for defenceles­s animals.

“They would do it to humans if they thought they could get away with it. O’malley RIP.”
