RIP beautiful soul. We tried to save you.
Poor Optima. Run free, sweet angel.
You shouldn’t of died due to be so very scared! a shame they wouldn’t allow you to live and no one came to save your life. one day I hope they will understand the fear that place causes especially for a feral cat , who if hurting no one should be released back to where it was found or trapped to be brought in there. I am sorry you lost your precious life at no fault of your own whatsoever, fear should not equal death, this practice needs to STOP. one of my own cats would be horrified if in that situation , scared of his own shadow, but a very loving and sweet cat when not afraid. In there they hear barking dogs, other cats and are caged when most have never been in a cage or carrier even. Please consider just releasing them back after spay or neuter, don’t kill them
This was a ferel cat.of course optima was petrified..I’m guessing the person who brought her in did not want her on their property..It is obvious someone was feeding her…. If released where she was found she could be in danger from the person who brought her in..Released somewhere else she would not be able to find food, or beat up by other ferel cats.. ..Very sad for these ferel cats..They lead such a hard life..
