Tiger. Little Haiti, Miami, FL. November 4, 2022
While out capturing cats for Trap-Neuter and Vaccinate -Release, a man approached me on the street and said to come take a cat he has in his yard whose “leg is not working.” He reports two weeks ago Tiger starting shaking to convulsing and fell down and unable to walk since.
He lead me to his back yard where I found a cat hiding under a motorcycle paralyzed wet from urine but alert and hungry, eating the sardines I offered him. Tiger is 7 years old. The man and his yard are refusing TNR of his sizeable colony of 10+ cats. This is a problem but I will work to inform and inspire him to TNR.
A nurse came to express his bladder and take a look, she references spinal injury. Video below.
I notice a laceration on the inner thigh and am wondering if not hit by a car, a potential dog attack.
