NEWARK, NEW JERSEY — A cat defied death last Thursday after it survived a 24 feet fall after being thrown from a third-floor balcony by a teenager in New Jersey.
Tikeemah Lassiter, aged 19, from Clinton, New Jersey was visiting her relatives in Newark on Thursday. She said the cat was bothering her because it kept entering the room, so she decided to do something about it.
In the video, Lassiter can be seen picking up the cat and lobbing it from balcony. The person filming her can be heard laughing.
The cat bounced once and then didn’t move when it hit the pavement below. The woman filming the video can be heard laughing and saying, “Really?! It’s dead?! Is it dead?”
According to NJ.com, Lassiter was arrested on Saturday and charged with animal cruelty. New Jersey Transit Police said she also had an unrelated $10,000 warrant out for her arrest for an assault. It’s unknown if the person who recorded the video was also charged.
The cat miraculously survived with only injuries to its paws. It was examined by a veterinarian and stayed with the vet on Sunday. It’s unlikely the cat will be returned to the apartment, a spokesperson for the New Jersey Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals told NJ.com.

I would push her and laugh “is she alive ?!”
Monster
She was mad
She needs to be arrested!
Lesss gooooo
This is appalling, and blatant animal cruelty. I'm not the biggest fan of animals, but this is sick. I know not all teenagers are like this, but this is sick. I sincerely hope karma will come back to bite her and the person who filmed this. I hope the relatives who allowed this horrible person to stay in their home with the cat never allow those two people back.
HA that's what she gets for animal cruelty
did it at least land on its feet?
Haha! Dont throw them. Give them to me so I can feed my hungry babies!

This is mufasa’s death with he was a normal cat and if it was a balcane

Wish the cat was dead
These people are so ignorant to think it's ok to throw a cat off a balcony, to hurt any animal is a crime and I believe that ANYONE who hurts an animal will be put in jail.
