Green, Ohio – A 57-year-old Ohio man is facing a felony animal cruelty charge for cutting off the tails of three kittens. According to sources, Bret Stalnaker allegedly cut off the kittens’ tails and threw a container holding them at a woman during a dispute.
According to the Summit County Sheriff’s Office, Stalnaker sent threatening text messages to the woman he was in a dispute with – the release states that he:
“Began sending her text messages stating he was going to harm kittens who were born nine days prior to the incident.”
