Westport and area residents came out to reflect on and stop animal abuse, one year after 1400 animals were found living in brutal conditions on the Medeiros tenant farm in Westport. Five speakers including Kathy Feininger and Barbara Pontolilo from Stop The Insanity, Westport, a group against animal abuse that was formed after the tenant farm animal abuse incident last year, spoke to a large gathering outside Westport Town Hall on Monday evening. Selectman Shana Shufelt, chair of the animal action committee, also spoke out about animal abuse. Other speakers included Wendy Taylor of West Place Animal Sanctuary in Tiverton, who took in many of the abused animals and Pam Holmes of Little Compton, an ASPCA first responder that worked the Westport abuse case.
