Dear friends, this campaign requires a paper letter and/or phone call. (Apparently, Change.org no longer offers pledges.) The below "petition" is a sample message you may use.

Background: http://blog.peta.org/archives/2010/06/kitten_killed_f.php

"You unplug my game, you die. That appears to have been the mentality of a 21-year-old man in Staunton, Virginia, who, according to reports, has been accused of killing his girlfriend's kitten by hurling the tiny animal against a wall after the kitten disconnected the video game he was playing. This allegedly happened while his girlfriend's children watched."
