We have been taking care of feral cats for a little over a year, and starting this week, have been trapping them, and working with our local S.N.A.P.S chapter, getting them spayed and neutered.
During all this our Mom cat, who has been living on our porch with 4 kittens, took off with the runt of the litter, Two Tone. Tues they finally showed back up. Two Tone almost died before we could get him in to see the wonderful angels at the animal shelter.
Now I find out that their wounds were “odd”. Mom looked like someone tied a rope around her neck, that she tried to get out of, and had cuts all over her neck. Not scratches like an animal would make, but scrapes and cuts.
Two Tone’s paws were swollen 2 – 3 times their size. I sat on the floor of the shelter yesterday, holding him wrapped in a cloth while we got an IV and fluids into him. He was dehydrated, and looked like he had been wet down, then rolled in dirt.
But when the vet tech injected a solution into his paws to clean out the infection, the water poured out of multiple tiny holes…like someone took a needle and repeatedly stuck it in his paws. We think now he was tortured, neither of their wounds look like they were caused by a wild animal, but human caused. What kind of sick bastard would torture a 4 month old kitten?
They were safe on our property! But we were afraid that Denise (woman from S.N.A.P.S.) who spotted Amelia hiding in the catnip, might have spooked her, and since Two Tone always followed her, went with her.
We have already made a vow that if Two Tone makes it, we will bring him into our home and not let him out again, so that no one ever harms him like that again. I ask for prayers for my kitty and Mom.
I am a white witch, and have protection spells around my property. This is the first time in my life I have ever felt like violating the “harm none” law. I just hope whoever tortured my cats, karma catches up with them.
