Kitten in dire need on Eno St between Jones and Allen Ruffin Ave
Yesterday around 7:30 pm I saw a grey tabby kitten in dire need on Eno St. If you are sensitive to animal suffering, don't read any further.
It is about 15 feet up a tree and is dying of starvation and dehydration -- all ribs, mouth ajar. It has also lost much of its tail. It's still responsive -- it moved towards me on a branch a few inches. It didn't vocalize, though, which is probably how it has gone unnoticed so long.
I am not from Hillsborough so I wasn't sure who to call. I tried Orange County Animal Rescue, but they are closed until Monday. Today, I tried Orange County Animal Control, but they can't go after animals in trees.
I am happy to pay for a private service to rescue the kitten -- if anyone could recommend a trusted local rescue service. If anyone plans to take an action on this and needs help coordinating, please message me. I'm happy to help in any way I can, from a distance. Either way, if someone does successfully assist the kitten, please message me.
Thank you everyone!
