This lost pet cat was found by Physical Plant employees, trapped by Cat Partners, and taken to the Georgetown City Animal Shelter today. The kitty was hanging out behind Physical Plant, by the SU Garden. The kitty was very hungry and appeared friendly, but fearful. A big thanks to one of the night custodians, Amelia, who reported the kitty to Kelly Lessard, Advisor to Cat Partners. Kelly was able to trap the kitty and take it to the shelter. The shelter scanned for a microchip, and will be contacting the registered owner.
