A cat with severe injury on his head
is reported
Quickly following after him
The wound on his head was worse than expected
Informant : I thought it was a twig
I followed his back slowly to pull it out if it really were a twig
But it was a nail stuck in his head
And his eyes were rolled back
How did he get hurt terribly..
Even if we try to help the cat,
He keeps avoiding
It's not easy
to catch such a vigilant cat
The cat vanished into thin air in a sec
PD : You can't find him, right? / No
Capturing devices are installed everywhere, but..
For the first two to three days, we placed 2-3 capture cages
Then we increased its number to 20 as we couldn't catch him
Over 20? / Yeah
But the cat didn't walk into the cage
The sensitive child has been avoiding capture cages
And hasn't been caught yet so far
Did the cat come?
He's at the very end of the way (Be quiet)
As a hasty approach could only increase his wariness,
Decide to watch him in a distance
Place food nearby
And leave a space for him, but..
The cat doesn't move at all
As we'd placed food here and left
He became less wary of us
He needs to put his guard down towards people first
Or else, nothing can be done for now
At the moment when we were waiting
An unexpected news came upon
He's come here almost every day over the two years / At this restaurant?
He comes here every day to feed himself
He wasn't injured back then. He looked fine
But he was pretty boney and stumbled... I felt pity watching such look
Since then I started to feed him
The lady has been feeding the cat over the 2 years
It's only been a few days since he got hurt
Probably during a month, between April and May
The cat showed up with injury
One of his eyes was gone and then he got a nail stuck in his head
At first, he showed up with injury
On his next visit, they found that he lost his eye
And next time, he showed up with a nail stuck in his head
I just couldn't stand and watch him turning up with one eye being lost..
We cried out of pity
I said "Why did you visit me with such a hideous look. It makes my heart ache"
The good thing is that the cat becomes less vigilant in this house
The cat has to walk up this stair and this roof
to come all the way up here, which is not easy
If he often passes here, we can rescue him at this spot
The next day after a long wait to observe the cat's movements,
We got the news that the cat came to eat
Upon a closer look,
The cat's injury was more severe than expected
The cat is still anxious
towards the lady who has fed him for a long time
Dragging his fatigued body, the cat starts filling his tummy
The cat struggling so hard to survive on his own..
Is that really a nail in his ear?
Can't imgaine how painful it would be..
I feel so bad watching him walking back and forth..
With the sincerity of those who'd like to give hands,
We hope the cat to be rescued safely..
The rescue can't be delayed anymore
The rescue team arrives at the site
and plans out to catch the cat safely
Animal rescue group : Using a net scoop to catch him wouldn't be enough
As the cat's built a strong bond with the lady and has faith in her,
Creating a capture cage that fits this space would be the best
Made a large capture cage that covers the front yard of the store
to prevent any injuries to the cat during the rescue
Animal protection group : Cats generally are hostile about existing capture cages
But the cat would feel less suffocated
and be less anxious about being confined in the new one we created
At the moment when the cat comes to eat
The cage will be shut after the rope is cut
After several practices,
The day of the rescue has come
PD : If you ever spot the cat, call us / Okay
A vet also waits at the site
Vet : The cat doesn't seem to suffer a complete skull fracture
That's why he could still survive until now
If he's left untreated, however, it could develop into septicemia,
which can lead to death
The cat needs to be rescued and treated asap
Would the cat show up again?
PD : Hello? Oh, is he coming?
Why don't you stay away from the cage? He might not come when strange people are around
The cat finally appeared in the alley near the store
Prepare a meal as usual
He went to other places
Got it, call me back if you see him coming
Perhaps he sensed something strange..
The cat disappeared to somewhere..
PD : How long have we waited?
About 13-14 hours?
Until the night falls, the cat didn't show up
At the moment when everyone was getting exhausted from a long wait..
The cat is here!
As usual, the cat visited the restaurant
Upon seeing the capture cage, however, the cat gets wary
Can he be rescued? Find out in part 2
