Well damn...
Remember the kitty found glued to the highway?

He didn't make it.



Cat dies after being left glued to Minnesota highway

A reward is being offered in the hopes of finding whoever glued a seven-month-old cat to the side of a southern Minnesota highway.

The cat was discovered Dec. 18 by a woman traveling to Sioux Falls, said Rosey Quinn of the city's Second Chance Rescue Center, where the orange and white male tabby was brought by the traveler and died five days later.

A man from Yankton, S.D., has offered a $1,000 reward for information leading to the person or people responsible, Quinn said.

Timothy, as the cat would be named while at the center, was spotted by Joyce Borgen as she drove on Hwy. 60, about 30 minutes west of Mankato. Borgen, 62, was on her way back to Sioux Falls after visiting relatives.

Borgen, with her two dogs and a bird already in tow, said that as she drove by, "the cat lifted up its head and looked at me" from the white line along the highway's edge.

After a quarter-mile to think about the cat's fate on that cold and blustery afternoon, Borgen said she decided, "I have to go back and get it. I couldn't let it stay there."

Anyone who has information about the incident should contact Rosey Quinn at Second Chance Rescue Center at 605 362 1722.

3. Bless that poor little kitten.
What kind of a monster would do such a thing to a little cat?

I hope he's at Rainbow Bridge now, happy, healthy, and well, the memory of how cruel humans are far from his mind.

RIP, litte guy. I'm sorry the world was so cruel to you. I have 3 here that I hope will never know the suffering you endured.
