A high school agriculture teacher smiled in her mug shot and wore a “Teach Ag” T-shirt when booked over the weekend, two days after she was allegedly caught on video offering students a hands-on opportunity in the classroom to learn how to staple a wide awake and screaming cat’s incision.

The video, which was described by local CBS affiliate KYTX as showing that cat awake and resisting as it was held down by students, flipped over, and allegedly used as part of 25-year-old Emily Marie Benner’s agricultural animal science class lesson last Friday at Westwood High School, a public school in Palestine, Texas, on stapling the cat.
