Found a cat on I10.........

[passgas55]

Saturday evening as I was heading east around mile marker 218. This is about 3 miles before you get into Kenner. The cat was on the railing pretty scared. I stop to pick it up. I got it with no problems and noticed this cat was injured bad on its rear leg. Try calling around but being the weekend the shelters were close. I did bring the cat to the vet today. Told me story and the vet said from the injuries it look like it was thrown out of a moving vehicle. the injuries were pretty servere and said it may be best to put it down. I signed the papers to put it down. I sure wish I could catch the person who done this. The cat was a calico, had a collar with a bell. I know sometimes feral animals need to be taken out but to throw a cat with a collar on I10.......

(I did post this story on another gun site, big mistake)

A lot of guns sites are full of Bubba's offspring.

[Cat]

Awww, poor baby.

She was comforted those last hours in her life. That matters. She died belonging to somebody.

Anyone that would do that to a pet, whether or not you like cats, deserves to be thrown out of a moving vehicle themselves.

Sometimes cats get into / onto/ underneath parked vehicles, and then choose the worst time to jump off.

I had to have one put down that i found. It came to my house dragging its hind legs. We were guessing it was hit by a car. The vet offered to do it for free but I paid her anyway. She, too, was a calico.

Exactly. I once saw a cat magically appear from under a big rig flying westbound on I-10.

Even if the cat wasn't thrown, shame on the owner for keeping their cat outdoors.

I don't like animal abuse. Killing varmint is one thing, but making one suffer is another. It really, really pisses me off.

This. I strongly agree with this. I was about to say the same thing, but add: if I had found that cat, I would have grounded up a little bit of my pain medicine in some meat for the kitty just to help her feel better. And I don't like cats!

Mine is under the coffee table glaring at me because I'm on his favorite chair.

If I had seen that happen, I would probably be in jail....

No. Get the license number of the car instead, and make THEM go to jail.

We had a dog fall out the back of the truck at about 50 mph while going to the vet, granted we put up signs and searched for 3 days until someone called and gave us a location where they saw her. Went to that spot and found her about 100 yards in the woods. Took her to the vet and she had nothing wrong.

If someone threw the cat out thats messed up.

Shoulda gave it some coolant, the good stuff from back when Hill Street Blues was still on the air.
