Bring your cat indoors — before it’s too late

Headline from West Hawaii Today

When police in Salem, Ohio, received a call for assistance for an injured cat, they couldn’t have been prepared for what they found. He had been shot with a crossbow, lost the use of his legs and, with the bolt still lodged in his body, lain in agony for days before a kind person discovered him.
