Two 15-year-old girls in Portland, Maine are facing animal cruelty charges after posting a video of themselves where they appear to microwave a cat.

The video was originally posted to the video sharing app Vine, which allows you to record, and automatically edit together, short snippets of video. So the edit in the video right when one of the girls hits the start button probably just made it look like they microwaved it. However, Gawker reports that police say they believe the cat was indeed kept inside a working microwave for an unspecified amount of time.

But what do you think? Did these girls actually microwave a kitten? Watch the video below and decide for yourself.

By the way, the kitten is fine and is now in the care of the Animal Refuge League of Greater Portland.
