A 14 year-old girl has been arrested after she was filmed disemboweling a kitten with a kitchen knife on Snapchat.

The teenager, who has not been named because of her age, was filmed sticking the blade into the tiny black and white animal’s neck, prompting it to spasm in pain.

Shortly after, she is seen slamming a plastic bag appearing to contain the animal against the floor, before the shot cuts to her disemboweling the squirming kitten as it lies on its back, causing the animal to die in agony.


Witchita PD Sgt. Harold McClure said they arrested one girl Wednesday and put her in a juvenile detention center, with the accomplice who filmed the video also set to be brought in for questioning.



He told the Times Record News: ‘We are very well aware of the situation and it is being investigated by juvenile investigators,” McClure said earlier Wednesday.

“The video is not worth watching. It is bad.’

The appalling clip, which is too disturbing to reproduce, also sparked outrage after it was posted on social media.

Many posters naming a local teenager they claimed was responsible for the slaughter, and that she had been attacked at school for what she had done.

Alecia Jane Lindsey said: ‘Seriously – my stomach hurts.

‘I hate that she apparently was jumped at school –Not how it should be justified – what she did to those animals… you must wonder how long it’s been going on.

‘And the girl who stood there to film multiple angles and versions – WTF. I’m just having a hard time processing this entire thread right now.’

Sandy Rogers added: ‘This is heart breaking,’ posted Sandy Rogers on Facebook.

‘Yes, for the kitten who suffered her actions and died a horrific, agonizing death, but even more so for our community, our society, and for this child. Just sickened by it all.’
