♦ On Saturday Perfect Purbaby Animal Rescue Center notified the Salisbury Police that the rescue center at 901 S. Main was broken into and heavily vandalized sometime between noon Friday and 1:30 p.m. Saturday. During the break-in some of the cats were set free, the walls spray painted with poorly spelled graffiti, the office was significantly damaged and files were ransacked.
At present the Rescue Center Office is temporarily closed.
Perfect Purbaby Animal Rescue Center wrote on their Facebook page: “Thankfully, no animals were harmed. This was not done for theft; it was done for vengeance by some really stupid, low-life vigilantes who believe it is better to kill an animal rather than give it a chance for a good life. It was done by calculated idiots who play God, judge and jury before the law even gets a chance to. All animals are now with loving fosters; we wouldn’t even consider leaving them there.”
Perfect Purbaby Animal Rescue Center said on their Facebook page:”To our faithful followers and true animal lovers, please be patient as the investigators do their job. Pray for the arrest and conviction of these lawbreakers (not the word I’d really like to use) and know that the cats, kittens and even guinea pigs that were there for adoption are now safe, healthy and loved. If anyone would still like to adopt, please contact us here and we’ll make every effort to meet with you so that you can find your 4ever loving companion. Thank you!”
