Brussels
woman
charged
by OSPCA
A 53 -year-old woman from
Brussels has been convicted of
animal cruelty under the Ontario
Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) Act as a
result of an investigation into the
care of over 60 animals on her
property.
On March 7, 2016, the Ontario
SPCA executed a search warrant at a
residence in Brussels. During their
execution of the warrant,
investigators found 22 cats living in
unsanitary conditions in several
small cages. Also on the property
were 21 dogs confined to cages and
kennels without food or water.
Two goats were found in a garden
shed without windows, lighting,
food or water and 12 chickens were
discovered in a coop without food.
Three exotic birds and a rabbit were
also found in unsanitary conditions.
The Ontario SPCA removed the
animals from the property to provide
them with proper food, water and
care. They were then individually
assessed by a veterinarian. Several
of the dogs were found to have
dental issues and one dog had to be
euthanized due to its deteriorated
condition. Many of the animals were
thin and suffering from severe upper
respiratory infections.
Gina Platt, 53, pled guilty in a
Goderich Provincial Offenses Court
on Feb. 10 to permitting distress to
an animal and was sentenced to two
years probation and a five-year
prohibition that limits the number of
species and number of animals she
can own. The prohibition order also
requires that she provide a list of any
animals she has to the Ontario
SPCA, and permits the Ontario
SPCA to contact her veterinarian to
ensure her animals are receiving
veterinary attention. She is also
subject to periodic, unannounced
inspections by the Ontario SPCA.
"Caring for a large number of
animals comes with an increased
risk that the needs of those animals
will suffer if circumstances change
in the life of their owner," says
Alison Green of the Ontario SPCA.
"If you see an animal in distress,
contact our 24-hour, province -wide
animal cruelty reporting centre at
310 -SPCA"
