Iowa man kidnaps ex-roommate's cat and then sends him an extremely disturbing video of him torturing the animal in the cold
A man from Iowa decided to steal his former roommate's pet cat and then proceeded to send pictures and videos of the animal being tortured and abandoned in the cold, authorities shared.
30-year-old Chad Toney allegedly broke into the house of his former roommate located in Benton County on February 1 and stole the man's pet cat Gladys. As reported by the Des Moines Register, Toney then took pictures and video clips of the animal being abused and sent it to his former roommate. According to KWWL, the abuse included stuffing the cat's head into the snow and then placing a wire around its neck, all of which was carefully documented by Toney. Sgt. Chris Rider from Benton County Sheriff’s Department shared, "That’s [when] the homeowner decided to call law enforcement because the video is disturbing."
