My neighbours are such amazing animal lovers. Lately, they noticed a stray black cat around our yards and realized quickly that he was limping. They set out to trap him and either find out if he was lost or get him healed up and a new forever home. Poor cat looks like he got into a decent scrap. Pretty sure The Comfie Cat Shelter agreed to help care for him, too.
