The guest didn't realize she had a camera in the house. She saw him beating the cat, dunking the cat in water, swinging it by its tail

Should she report this? This is in MFH btw so I dont know if NYPD/the DA would care about animal abuse like this

There's no lasting damage to the cat but the cat is traumatized and meows in fear a lot now

I think it'd be in wrong taste to poast video w/o her consent since it shows her apartment

Otherwise I'd put it up. The guy chases the cat over the apt and even does stuff like moving the couch to grab it by its scruff and beat it etc

if there's one nearby maybe show them the video and see what can realistically be done

The guy held the cat by its scruff so it was sort of immobilized and then slapped it with his other hand

He would also kick it after he cornered it and used a swiffer rod to hit it when it hid underneath the couch

He held the cat by its scruff and dunked it into the sink with running water

This dude was in hot pursuit. He was pushing furniture and chasing the cat down in a studio apartment. The cat was fleeing but would eventually get cornered. He was also using a swiffer stick to poke it out from under the couch/actively chasing the cat

In one video he comes home, the cat is hiding on top of the fridge. The guy does a search of the whole apartment to find it so he could start hitting it. He even shines his cell phone light underneath the couch to see if it’s there

I tend to suspect its the cat owner, as cat owners are generally weird, but if the house guest was actually doing this shit then the police should keep an eye o him.

When you actually swing a cat around by its tail, the skin breaks off at the base & the cat goes flying into the wall. It'll be left with a weird red rat-like tail thing, and you're left with a fur sock in your hand.

it seems like youve never met a real cat in your life. i guess its possible if you grabbed it by its very tip
