Coney Island principal failed to protect 2 elderly stray cats buried repeatedly in snow storms: activists

Animal activists claim a Coney Island principal is a real-life Cruella de Vil for failing to protect a pair of stray cats repeatedly buried by snow blowers this year.

Coney Island animal lover Suzanne Hernandez had been feeding a then four-member cat colony at IS 303 on Shore Parkway for 12 years, without issue, until Principal Shanesha White Bailey took the reins in 2022 and allegedly refused the kitties long-standing accommodations.

In 2023, Bailey ordered the removal of a small Styrofoam and plastic shelter for the cats located in the school’s large parking lot — leaving the poor kitties to seek shelter underneath shipping containers in the lot during inclement weather, activists claim.
