The District Attorney’s office on Friday confirmed that it has received and is reviewing the case, which animal control officials say they submitted Thursday. Prosecutors will determine whether there is enough evidence to file felony charges. If prosecutors decline, the case could be sent to the Long Beach City Prosecutor’s office to consider possible misdemeanor charges.

Like the cats it literally spawns, kitten season springs out at us unawares instead of waiting patiently around the corner, like birthdays or the last day of school, when we used to have school.
