Beaver Trap Severely Injures Kitten in Montana

in Animal News

Blackey the cat was missing from his Missoula home for several days, but when he finally returned, he was in bad shape; one of his front legs had been caught in a beaver trap. The kitten’s bones were crushed, and his leg had to be amputated at the shoulder. Blackey’s owner says that Blackey is now learning how to walk on three legs.
