Horses Rescued From Cruel Conditions

Both Twister and Tootsie Roll were part of a rescue that happened earlier this month in Catskill, New York when the New York State Police along with the Columbia-Greene Humane Society/Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals arrested a man and charged him with cruelty to animals. WTEN reported the arrest on January 9th stating that 57-year-old Li Binghui, allegedly neglected numerous animals including a donkey and the two horses that are up for adoption. At the time of Binghui's arrest, the equines were underweight and dehydrated. All are now in good health according to CGHS.
