A woman who allowed her sick cat to be treated by a faith healer who laid hands on the animal to make its swollen leg better should get back the €16,000 she paid for the treatment, a court in Zwolle ruled on Wednesday.

The treatment was carried out under guarantee, news agency ANP said.
The court said the attempt to heal the cat through a process known as the Orkisol concept was ‘quackery’. The animal was eventually put down.
