‼️UPDATE‼️, Thursday 12/4- They took them for the 3rd day In a row.
WHAT KIND OF CITY DOES THIS IN 18° WEATHER?
LEFT THE TRASH, TOOK THE SHELTERS 🤬
Freezing temps. Snow coming. 18° weather on the way. And this city is out here ripping down cat shelters 💔 AGAIN.
Today they removed 3 shelters from a vacant property that’s been empty for YEARS (see pics below)—
and as always, they left the trash. 🗑️
And it’s not the first time.
Last Wednesday they took the shelters that were slept In every night…and left the trash.
**IF THAT LOT IS “UNSUITABLE” FOR PAINTED SHELTERS, THEN NOTHING IN THIS CITY QUALIFIES. 😤🎨🐾

This isn’t about “ordinances.”
This is about punishment, ego, and cruelty disguised as “policy.”
➡️ After our post last Wednesday, what did they do?
Went right back to the Kroger lot —WHERE WE HAVE PERMISSION- the same lot where we’ve removed nearly 20 cats, TNR’d, fed them, and took care of them…
and they took every shelter again.

Imagine the impact if they chased real problems the way they chase cat shelters. 🐾🔥
These are cats Covington residents abandoned.
The city doesn’t care what their residents caused —
but they sure as hell want to punish the results.
I never imagined the bar for our city leaders would be so low that “don’t let animals freeze to death” feels aspirational. But here we are. 🥶🤷♀️
Today alone:
* 5 shelters gone at Kroger
* 3 from that vacant property
Eight shelters destroyed the night before 18 deg temperatures.🤬
They’re engineering the exact outcome they claim to fear — because to them this is a pi***ng contest, and not one of them has the slightest clue what they’re talking about.
This isn’t “following ordinances.”
This is:
❌ RETALIATION
❌ TARGETED HARASSMENT
❌ NEGLECT
❌ CRUELTY
And if you don’t think this is intentional…
YOU’RE NOT PAYING ATTENTION — AND THEY’RE COUNTING ON IT.

Their ordinances don’t save abandoned animals—they condemn them. We already asked, “Where do they go?” and they had no answer. Maybe they’ll finally choke out a response when YOU ask..
