Help Wiley Recover from Attack
Friday, 19 February 2010

Wiley is a 7 year old male tabby. He is a very laid back, mild mannered boy. He was a stray in the Love Field area, rescued by a local family. He was kept as an outdoor cat and recently was caught by a coyote. One of the family members managed to scare off the coyote, but needed to turn him in to rescue, as they could not care for him indoors -- and were concerned about the coyotes.

 

He is sad at the shelter, so he would benefit from foster care in a private home. He probably needs some time to adjust to a new, indoor environment.

 

Wiley is FIV positive.

 

If you'd like to support Wiley as he's recovering from everything he's been through and adjusting to a new environment, please donate for his care as a guardian angel.

 

 

The coyote attack story was reported here on cbs11tv.com. Please be aware of wild animals in your neighborhoods and protect your outdoor pets.
