In a shocking exposé, Little Wanderers NYC has revealed the horrific abuse inflicted upon stray cats in the Bronx. These defenseless felines are being used as live bait to train pit bulls for illegal underground dogfighting rings. Disturbing video footage has emerged, capturing the gruesome attacks on the helpless cats as they desperately try to escape the clutches of the bloodthirsty hounds. Courtney Chandel, co-founder of Little Wanderers NYC, has condemned this cruel practice, which has persisted for years in the Gun Hill and Parkland housing projects. She questions the absence of intervention from authorities such as the NYPD, the New York City Housing Authority, and the ASPCA. Despite repeated calls to 311, no meaningful action has been taken to address this escalating issue.
The lack of resources and support for animal welfare in the Bronx is a contributing factor to this despicable behavior. Chandel highlights the absence of animal shelters, low-cost spay and neuter programs, and the limited resources available for organizations like Little Wanderers NYC. The city’s priorities seem to focus on aesthetic beautification rather than addressing the urgent needs of both animals and humans.
Little Wanderers NYC’s mission is to provide support and advocacy for the animals who are suffering in silence. They urge the public to report any instances of animal cruelty and support organizations working to protect the voiceless. The welfare of animals and children should be paramount, and it is imperative that authorities take immediate action to end this abhorrent practice and bring those responsible to justice.
