Jalen Gonzalez, a 23-year-old man, is facing charges of aggravated cruelty to animals, criminal mischief, attempted assault, and harassment. The alleged attack occurred in January after Gonzalez became drunk and refused to leave his girlfriend's apartment. When she left, he allegedly held her cat, named Kitty, by her neck and hind legs, causing significant injuries. The charges are not bail-eligible under New York state law.
