Two seniors were given a long lecture on pranks and respect for animals, after they were turned in. It gets funnier…“[The seniors] said, `It seemed to be funny at the time, but once we thought about it, we couldn\’t glue the hair back on the cat,\’ \’\’ Krutulis said. “It\’s their responsibility to pay back the animal world.\’\’

The offenders have also been shunned by their schoolmates, who saw the incident as a violation of a pact between seniors and the administration to eliminate pranks in exchange for a field day and extra days off.

“They\’ve been ostracized by their peers, and that\’s the worst punishment,\’\’ Krutulis said.
