This is not really my topic. But I have two cats myself and I am shoked.

Yesterday, July 17, near 11:00 two men, one of them said to be a teacher at Latvian Sport Pedagogical Academy, throw a small cat to their dog. The dog broke kitten's stomach.

Look in his eyes! He probably came to people hoping to play with them. Small cats do this... But they threw him to the big dog as a piece of meat.

Police was called by people passing by. When arrived, police made a fine to dog's owner for walking with dog without muzzle. They did not want to register cruelty to the kitten.

Pure creature was in agony all time while transferred to animal hospital by rescue team. Doctors were not able to save it. They have to give the kitten deathly injection to stop his suffering.

State authorities will write an official letter to police asking to open a crime case. It is not clear if police will do it or not.

Latvia calls itself "European country". So far only one was was prosecuted for cruelty to animals in Latvia. All others avoided prosecution.
