TAMPA, Fla. (TCD) -- A 53-year-old woman was arrested this week after allegedly using a cat to batter her girlfriend.
According to a report obtained by WFLA-TV, Susan Freudenthal and her girlfriend got into an argument. Freudenthal allegedly took the couple’s cat, put it near the girlfriend’s face and "swore on the animal’s life that she was not cheating."

According to the affidavit obtained by WFLA, Freudenthal told police she was the "true victim."
