GUELPH – The Guelph Humane Society (GHS) is seeking information from the public about a cat that was left at the side of the road in a plastic blue tote bin on April 22.
The black domestic short hair female cat was found around 4:30pm by a passing driver at the intersection of Imperial and Westwood roads in Guelph.
The cat was trapped in the tote and the driver immediately brought her to the Guelph Humane Society for care.
The obese and scared female cat is now being monitored closely at the shelter. Although she appears in good health, further medical testing will be done.
“We are looking for the public’s assistance to help us understand why the cat was abandoned the way she was,” said Megan Swan, Ontario SPCA agent.
“We don’t know anything about her history and want to understand why someone might have left the cat at such a busy intersection.”
Anyone with information can call 519-824-3091.
The Guelph Humane Society urges the community to reach out to GHS at 519-824-3091 or via email intake@guelphhumane.ca, if continued care of an animal is not possible.
