Guest guest Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 Many of you may know this but I did not know the exact law. I know that littering is illegal in TX how come this does not include animals? A woman I met at the vet was devastated at seeing someone throw a kitten out of the window on the highway - I have no words for people like this - she did not know what to do. I e-mailed Skip Trimble, an attorney and with THLN and he sent me this response - Mel, I share your anger. However, there is a Penal Code Section 42.092 that makes abandonment of an animal a Class A misdemeanor. I realize these things are hard to prove, but if you see somebody doing it and can get a license plate number, that will go a long way. Skip Robert L.
