In November 2005, a cat's owner says he saw Travis Elaine Carr lure the cat over to her home, and pour antifreeze into a bowl. The cat drank some before its owners took it to the vet.

Carr is charged with animal cruelty and disorderly conduct. The cat is expected to recover.

In North Carolina, animal cruelty can be a misdemeanor, or even a felony. If someone kills or hurts and animal, it's a Class One misdemeanor. If that harm is intentional and malicious, or especially cruel, it's considered a felony.
