Kelly Shum, owner of the Mad Butcher Meat Company in South Sacramento, remembers the incident clearly: A white man wearing a “Stand With The Flag” shirt came into her shop, made a purchase, and then, upon exiting, threw a dead cat into the parking lot right outside the store.
Shum said she’s seen the man before, as a customer. The sentiment behind his actions that day weren’t new for their shop, she says, but it was a tipping point for her family.
Elected officials and church leaders rallied around Mad Butcher Meat Company owner, Kelly Shum, after a person reportedly dumped a dead cat on their property last week.

Rocky Mountain Regional VA Medical Center associate chief of pharmacy operations Terrence Wong moves 975 doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine to a freezer on December 15, 2020 in Aurora, Colorado. The Eastern Colorado VA Health Care System was chosen as one of 37 VA centers around the country to receive the vaccine because of their ability to store the vaccine at extremely cold temperatures and vaccinate a large number of people.
