Sahih Muslim · Hadith 5989

حدثني عبد الله بن محمد بن أسماء الضبعي، حدثنا جويرية بن أسماء، عن نافع، عن عبد الله، أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال ‏"‏ عذبت امرأة في هرة سجنتها حتى ماتت فدخلت فيها النار لا هي أطعمتها وسقتها إذ حبستها ولا هي تركتها تأكل من خشاش الأرض ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Nafi' reported from 'Abdullah that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: A woman was punished because she had kept a cat tied until it died, and (as a punishment of this offence) she was thrown into the Hell. She had not provided it with food, or drink, and had not freed her so that she could eat the insects of the earth.
