A place of greater safety
Those cats are safe from Zouma.
Animal charity the RSPCA has taken West Ham defender Kurt Zouma’s pet cats away after videos emerged on social media of him kicking and slapping one of them.
The Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is liaising with Essex Police about the incident.
“The two cats are now in RSPCA care,” said a charity spokesperson.
The Premier League club say they have fined Zouma “the maximum amount possible” and the fee will be donated to animal welfare charities.
In addition, German sportswear firm Adidas has ended its deal with the 27-year-old.
I hope the cats get a vastly kinder human for their next home.
“I hope the cats get a vastly kinder human for their next home.” — I hope his wife and kids do too.
I’m glad they were able to pry the police away from sticker patrol. I wonder if they’ll pick Zouma up and detain him for ten hours to make it worth their while. Maybe they could search his house while they’re at it.
