Cat on a Bridge

There are many LVVHS volunteers who spot animals in distress just by driving on the busy Las Vegas streets. One of our volunteers, Carolyn, was driving over a bridge and saw a small cat crouched down at the top. There was nowhere to stop and traffic was heavy in both directions. Carolyn parked at the bottom of the bridge and carried food and a cat carrier up the sidewalk. Not knowing if the cat was injured, she took slow small steps until the cat started meowing. This was a good sign. The danger of traffic was still a problem until the cat could safely be put into the carrier. The smell of wet food brought the cat closer and with a few more steps, Tigra was safe in the carrier.

Tigra is now in a wonderful foster home where she can eat to her heart’s content, play, and experience what it is to be truly loved.
