4/3/21 – RIP Sweet Sam. Our friend contacted us about Sam. She had just trapped him and his tail had either been purposely cut off or he was caught somewhere. Shelley tends to believe this may be an abuse situation in that there have been other cats found in the area who appeared to be victims of abuse. I won’t post the photos because they are too graphic but this poor animal had to be in unbelievable pain and the wound seemed recent and very, very infected. We tried to get him into a hospital to be humanely euthanized in that Sam was very feral and Shelley couldn’t imagine what could be done. But, either the wait was very long or there was nothing available. Fortunately, Shelley thought to contact the Macomb Animal Control who picked up Sam and humanely put him out of his pain. Run free across the Rainbow Bridge sweet boy. Thank YOU, Shelley, for everything that you do for those in need. – diana
