Teenager Jailed for Killing Cat With CrossbowMember Removed A nursery nurse who fired a crossbow at her neighbour´s cat then left it to die has been jailed for 3 months. Chloe O´connor, 19, shot the cat from her bedroom window and fired the weapon with such force that it went through the pet´s abdomen and out the other side. Trouble, a ginger and white tom, managed to drag himself part of the way home before collapsong and dying. She admitted it saying that she was drunk. The chairman of the magistrates bench said her actions had had a psychological effect on the whole community. He said ´This is a sad day for the community. We have no good reason to suspend this sentence.this act was the use of a lethal weapon while under the influence of alcohol which has had a significant psychological effect on the owner´s youngest daughter and on the community as a whole´ Well, at least she got a jail sentence, even if it was only 3 months!!
