Edmonton man who killed, cooked cat gets 10-months ‘jail

A 19-year-old Edmonton man who kidnapped, dismembered and cooked the cat of a friend he mistakenly believed had stolen his iPad was given 10 months in jail Tuesday.

Provincial Court Judge Donna Groves said it was a “serious” and “barbaric” crime with “disturbing” facts.

“The allegations are gruesome. The cat was killed, its neck was broken and its body was dismembered,” said Groves.

The judge ruled the Feb. 13 cat theft and killing was “planned and premeditated” and done as revenge for an allegedly stolen iPad and rejected McKinnon’s claim that he had killed the cat to put it out of its misery.

The judge also spoke of the “barbaric” actions of McKinnon and his two co-accused for frying up the slain cat’s body parts in a skillet and said that if firefighters responding to a report of a small fire had not showed up, she feared “the unspeakable would have occurred.”

Wendell Mack Mah, 18, and a 14-year-old male who cannot be named under the Young Offenders Act, are still facing charges of animal cruelty.
