What a disgusting person, i hope they catch her and kill her. Sickening!
They should've traced the #( *69?) and gone to her house with bats and knifes. I would've tried any and everything to track that lady down and smack the snot outta her

A Meadowvale family is shocked that a cold-hearted neighbour may be holding its missing pet for ransom.
Grieving the loss of 3-year-old tabby, Rylee, who disappeared last Friday -- and already at their wit's end trying to find him -- family members received a disturbing call on Wednesday night.
"This lady called and asked if we're offering a reward. When I said 'yes' and that it was $100, she said that wasn't enough -- that she wanted at least $500 or she'll kill him. She sounded serious," said Larry Hall, who lives near Aquitaine Ave. and Tenth Line.
After Hall told the woman that he was going to contact police, she quickly hung up.
Hall's wife, Sherry, was shocked by the turn of events.
"It's mindboggling that someone would even think of doing something like this for money. Rylee's valuable to us because we love him, but he's not a rare breed or anything like that," she said.
Peel Regional Police Const. Jennifer Bryer said she doesn't recall something like this happening before.
"It could occur, but it would be very rare. It would take a very mean person to do something like that...and we will prosecute if it happens," she said.
The family has been scouring the neighborhood and putting up posters since Rylee went missing. The Halls even enlisted the help of teenagers to go around on their bikes looking for the cat, giving them $100 for their time.
Meanwhile, Rylee's twin sister, Rain, and the family dog, Mika, have been moping around the house since their chum's disappearance.
"They obviously miss him very much...and so do we," said Sherry. The mother of two believes the modern-day Cruella De Vil lives in the neighbourhood.
"She's got our phone number, so she probably saw the poster," she said.
The family hopes she'll do the right thing and return Rylee.
"We're not going to give in to her threat, because what it amounts to is extortion. The cat doesn't mean anything to her. If she does have Rylee, we're begging her to call Animal Services and turn him in," said Sherry.
