Woman fears for unknown cat rescuer
An extremely concerned woman called the Flathead County Sheriff’s Office after seeing an ad on Craigslist under the community section stating that someone found a cat and took it into his home while looking for the owner.
The woman said she was afraid the people may be in danger of getting rabies and that the picture was not of a cat but of some unknown wild animal, which made her fear for the kindhearted cat-carer’s safety. She was advised that the photo was of an opossum, which is not found in the area, and that it appeared to be a joke.
