Cat Needs Help

Posted to the -activism- filter.

Via Citykitties (emphasis mine):

A good samaritan found this cat today in a gutter by Clark Park, half dead. He is now at the Cat Doctor with a body temperature of 90 (normal is 102) and blood PCV of 8. The Cat Doctor housecat, Diamond, is currently donating blood to save his life. During the exam, the vet found that this cat has a microchip. When called, his "owners" reported that he was acting sick, so they put him outside. If this makes you as angry as it makes us, please channel your anger in one of two ways: visit our website at www.citykitties.org and make a donation to help us pay for his care, or share this post and encourage others to do so.

I am seriously going to cry and not just virtual cry next time I see this. THAT LOOKS LIKE AMOS. Oh my god I am a mess. *clutches Amos*

God, I know. It's so terrible.

I looked at their page, and the full story is somehow even more awful. I bet the citykitties people could raise even more money if they promised to forward all hate mail people want to send to Clark's former owners.

I can't look at this without getting upset. Who puts a sick cat outside??????

I'm not the original poster, but it's totally fine with me! Need it made public?

All good. I shared the original post with Facebook and I'm sure someone there knows someone.

I stopped by PetCo today to say hi to the cats and there was one friendly lil goober who only had one eye. He was so handsome.

those owners are monsters. What the hell is wrong with some people?

It's disgusting.

I don't have words.

What kind of owner....

I can't even process the kind of person who would do this.

I can't either.

What the fuck? I wonder if they do the same with their kids?

"Oh, honey. The son is sick, so I put him outside this morning."

I know. It's really gross.
