Lakewood: When the story was reported to us, we shared it in anger and worded it as “Jewish Children.” It was apparent to most the guilty parties were Hasidic children, but it wasn’t fair to use the general term Jewish. We wanted to offer an apology to anyone who is Jewish and is Against the sacrifice and/or torture of innocent animals. The Jewish religion is compromised of various sects who often denounce Hasidic extremists for their beliefs. Going forward we will be more accurate to identify the guilty parties as accused.

Do understand we have separate independent confidential witnesses who identified the school children as wearing traditional Hasidic clothing, which would lead a common person to believe they are members of the Hasidic faith. It seems like a certain group of people get a free pass in committing illegal acts, and were strongly in favor of equal treatment and enforcement of all laws.

Please consider donating to the “Calling All Cats Rescue” for the care of this violently and needlessly tortured cat. We have forwarded our witness statements to the proper authorities to aid in the capture of those guilty of this heinous act.

Thank you everyone for your understanding in this sensitive and upsetting incident.
