A reader Nowogrodziec – news:
I live in Nowogrodziec with my boyfriend, in a quiet place; we have three cats. The cats go outside. A few weeks ago, one of them returned with a wound from which we removed an air-rifle pellet.
She adds: – Last Thursday, another one of our cats returned home in serious condition. At the veterinarian, it turned out that someone had shot the cat with an air rifle; the pellet pierced its trachea and bounced off its spine. The cat had to undergo surgery and barely survived. The treatment cost us PLN 1,300, but that is not important, because the most important thing is that the cat survived; nevertheless, it could have paid with its life for someone’s bestial behavior.
As reported by the Nowogrodziec news service, the matter has been reported to the police.
