Tuesday  September 29, 2009

catducttape.jpgThe person who wrapped a cat named Sticky in duct tape has been arrested. He is identified as 19 year-old James Davis of North Philadelphia.

According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, Pennsylvania SPCA law enforcement officials arrested Davis on Saturday night after receiving a tip.

Davis admitted to the animal abuse charge, saying that he spontaneously decided to wrap the cat’s entire body in duct tape after seeing the cat in the yard of his parents’ home, reports the Philadelphia Inquirer. When the cat’s screams became too annoying after a couple of hours, Davis threw the cat in a neighbor’s yard where it lay for 12 hours before being spotted last Tuesday by a passerby. 

The SPCA, which named the cat Sticky, still has possession of the cat. Many people have called claiming to own the cat, but none have been able to prove it, reports the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Davis could be sentenced to two years in prison and a fine of at least $1,000, reports the Philadelphia Inquirer.
