The RSPCA appealed for more information about a video showing a man drop-kicking a cat.

Sickening footage shows a man coaxing a cat towards him, stroking it behind the ears as if he wants to be kind.

Then he pulls his foot back and kicks it, sending it spinning into the air.

The poor animal is sent flying several feet, then gets up and runs away.

In the background, someone can be heard hysterically laughing.

Video was shared on Twitter by the account Protect All Wildlife with the caption: ‘Please RT. Let’s find this oxygen thief!!!!’

It has been shared over 14,000 times.

Among those commenting was Matt Zilic, who wrote: ‘The cat trusted him for that moment. That’s heartbreaking.’

The RSPCA responded: ‘Thanks for tagging us – this has been reported and will be looked into. If you have further information regarding this please report to us on 0300 1234 999 – thanks.’
