Twitter user @eryazmi or Mohamad Heiry uploaded a short video exposing his neighbour, who was caught repeatedly hitting his cat with the wooden end of a broomstick. The neighbour then continued to drag the cat inside, punching and slamming him against the floor, which is not shown in the video. Cries of distress and pain coming from the cat was clear throughout the whole recording.
Jiran sebelah rumah sewa aku. Baru aku tahu kenapa kucing2 dia selalu mai rumah sewa aku.

Rupanya tuan dia sendiri perangai celaka. Sebelum post kat twitter, aku dah report polis dah pic.twitter.com/pUtEJyrJKy
According to Heiry, his neighbour, who owns at least two cats, has been abusing the felines on a daily basis and his cats would often flee to his house for protection. Prior to posting the video on Twitter, Heiry had already lodged a police report against his neighbour.

Aku taktau nombor rumah dia berapa sebab blok sebelah. Kalau sape2 dari Animal Shelter nak mai, please DM aku dulu. Aku guide pergi rumah dia.
Heiry has also included his neighbour's address since some have enquired about possibly adopting the abused cats that are currently under his neighbour's care, or lack thereof. His latest tweet informs that the Malaysian Department of Veterinary Services has since arrived at the scene.
As of now, it is still uncertain whether or not the cats will be taken away from the abusive neighbour. If you're concerned and wants to know the latest updates, you can try following Heiry on twitter under the username @eryazmi.
No abuser should get away from such a horrible act. Here's to hoping appropriate action to be taken against him.
