On Jan. 24, an abandoned cat was discovered at a rest stop on I-95 in New Canaan, Connecticut.
The cat was left in a cat carrier. New Canaan Animal Control assisted state police in response to the incident.
Due to the cold temperatures, the cat was immediately taken to a veterinarian. The veterinarian determined the cat suffered two broken legs and trauma to the right eye.
The Norwalk-based PAWS did not hesitate to provide medical assistance when contacted by New Canaan Animal Control.
