Sick Cat Finds The Help He Needs After Breaking Into Apartment

In New York City, you do what you can to get by.

In the case of one very ill cat in the borough of the Bronx, that meant staging a break-in.

“He reportedly entered a stranger’s apartment through an open window,” said Kenia Castellanos, who runs the Hudson Valley branch of animal advocacy group Empty Cages Collective.

The orange and white feline, now named Zebro, was in bad shape — thin, dehydrated, and suffering from ear infections, an upper respiratory infection and renal failure. Though no one can know what was going on in Zebro’s mind, the group senses he was seeking help.

“We can only imagine the desperation that this cat must’ve felt in order to venture into a strange home,” ECC wrote on a fundraising page for Zebro’s medical expenses. “Police stated that they were able to easily pick him up and place him inside a box. Sweet Zebro did not resist, and he did not show any signs of aggression.”
