Cat found shot in Soledad, SPCA Monterey County offering $1,000 reward for suspect information
SOLEDAD, Calif. (KION-TV) -- The SPCA Monterey County is offering a $1,000 reward for any information leading to the arrest of someone who shot a cat in Soledad.
The SPCA said a good Samaritan found the cat, identified as Libby, near Soledad High School on Crestfield Street with a severely injured leg that was broken and dangling.
Staff at the SPCA found Libby was shot in the leg with a pellet gun.
“We hope this reward will inspire someone to come forward with information,” said Gio Rodriguez, SPCA Humane Investigations Officer. “This poor cat suffered a painful, inhumane injury. Our goal is to find the person responsible so this never happens again.”
The SPCA said Libby doesn't have a microchip, collar or tag but is very friendly. No owner has come to look for her yet either.
Anyone with information on this case is asked to contact the SPCA at 831-373-2631. All calls are confidential.
To donate to help rescue abused and neglected animals, please call the SPCA at 831-264-5421 or donate online at www.SPCAmc.org.
