FWACC seeking information about two cats rescued after being shot by pellets

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WPTA) - Fort Wayne Animal Care and Control asking for the public's help in finding information about the person or people responsible for two injured cats.

"Our team is thankful the injuries sustained were not life-threatening and these cats are being treated with help from our donor-supported Angel Fund," FWACC Shelter Director Amy-Jo sites said. "As a reminder to all, there are many humane alternatives for dealing with unwanted animals who may show up on your property."

"That's why our department exists, please let us provide you with safer options."
