Authorities are searching for the owner of a kitten that was thrown from a moving car in Putnam Township.
The Livingston County Sheriff’s Office reports that on Wednesday, Animal Control deputies were dispatched to a residence in the 9000 block of Farley Road on the report of an animal abuse complaint. The residents reported that at approximately 7 p.m. on Tuesday June 20th, they were taking their garbage to the roadway when an older model Chevrolet Impala, Burgundy / Maroon in color, was driving past and they witnessed a small black kitten be thrown from the window of the moving vehicle.
The residents began rendering aid to the kitten which was bleeding and injured before it ran away. When the kitten returned to the residence on Wednesday, they called Animal Control, which transported it to the Livingston County Animal Shelter where it was checked by veterinarians and determined to not have any significant injuries.
Anyone with information in regards to the case is asked to contact Animal Control Deputy LeBombard.
“The Sheriff’s Office would like to remind animal owners that there are resources available to surrender animals in a humane way,” stated a press release.
