Fire Shelter Director Pat Horan Charge Her with Animal Cruelty & Neglect
Fire Shelter Director Pat Horan Charge Her with Animal Cruelty & Neglect
The Issue
UPDATE: Town of Hempstead animal shelter acting director Pat Horan has been reassigned to a position outside of the shelter, according to Hempstead Town Supervisor Kate Murray, pending the outcome of an investigation into the circumstances surrounding a youtube video that depicted Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter employees making obscene gestures, and chanting "Kill the kitty," which quickly went viral on YouTube. The town will be conducting a search for an animal shelter director immediately. Problem is, Pat Horan was paid $100,000 as a shelter director, and has been reassigned to a new position RETAINING her salary!
Last December, three animal rescue volunteers filed a lawsuit against the Town of Hempstead, Supervisor Kate Murray and seven other employees after the volunteers were banned from the town’s Wantagh animal shelter — where they had worked for years — for what they say is retaliation for speaking out to shelter employees and town officials about abuse and neglect.

On March 13,2011 a video was posted on YouTube which clearly shows the shelter staff laughing and joking about killing a kitten. Kitten was then removed from its crate with a catch pole and was then pinned down by an employee while the shelter director Pat Horan, stood there and watched. She is later heard laughing and chanting "Kill the Kitty", "Kill the Kitty"
WE ARE RESPECTFULLY DEMANDING THAT PAT HORAN (Shelter Director) have ANIMAL CRUELTY CHARGES FILED AGAINST HER.
