4//7/15 – Here is a frightening story that is worthy of sharing, especially, with anyone you know who has small pets. Last night I received a call about a cat being cared for in a feral colony. The cat was writhing in pain and upon closer inspection was found to have talon wounds on his back. It’s suspected that possibly a hawk or other large bird tried taking him but somehow failed. We immediately authorized the cat to be seen at one of the emergency hospitals who work with us. The cat was in serious condition and within a short period went into cardiac arrest and died. Thank you to our friend Debbie N. for trying to save this sweet life. He is no longer in pain and is now with all of the innocent lives who have crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Please let his experience be a warning as the weather gets warmer and more of our pets are spending time outdoors. ~ diana
