“Yes, undoubtedly. If the court can prove they violated animal cruelty laws, then it should be a felony.”
— Sasha Glanville, child care provider, Oskaloosa

“That's a tough question, because it's hard to know where to draw the line. I would have to know exactly what constitutes animal cruelty to decide.”
