Feline Felon's Foul Finale

MYSPACE

Cheyenne Cherry, 17, killed her ex-roommate's cat.

A defiant cat-killing teenager, who was sentenced Wednesday to a year in jail for stuffing a helpless kitten into a 500-degree oven, had one last attack for the legions of pro-pet protesters at her trial.

"It's dead, bitch!"

That's what a heartless Cheyenne Cherry, sticking her tongue out, screeched at the animal rights activists after taking a plea bargain that will put her in the pen for a year, according to the Daily News.

The kitten, named Tiger Lily, was killed in horrific fashion, crying and scratching before dying, after Cherry and a 14-year-old friend ransacked a Bronx apartment then tossed the animal in the oven back on May 6.

The younger teen has been charged with aggravated animal cruelty and burglary, the same charges Cherry plead guilty to.
