We have/had two cats.
One was a 4 mth old moggie.
She didnt come home one night and I though that it was a little strange as she usually sleeps inside with us.
Getting up during the night for our young daughter, I called for Pearl about three times during the night, but to no avail.
When we were leaving to go out the next morning, I saw her. Under a bush in the rain, soaking wet and in shock. Raced her to the Emergency Vet (it was a sunday) and was told she had a broken back. I sensed this as Pearl couldnt move her back legs.
So, we discovered a few puncture marks and decided that it was probably a dog attack, though there wasnt much blood.
And I thought, how strange, if her back was broken, how did she get under the bush?
Our neighbours are really weird and used to take Pearl up to their fence that enclosed their two dogs-who hated cats- so im thinking that our kitten probably went into their yard, was attacked by the dogs, then they found her injured and put her under the bush. Im devastated that they could do this. She was out in the rain all night, and wouldve been able to hear me call her, but couldnt get up. I am so sad.
