I am very sad to report that today's paper reports that Little Jim has also succumbed to his burn injuries. He had been taken to The University of Florida for skin grafts. Little Jim is now at the bridge. Grayson and I know you are in very good paws now, Little Jim, and we know that many cats and dogs are rejoicing to see you all well and happy again.
I am very glad that the paper says that Blackie is expected to make a full recovery! I hope you live a life of health, happiness, and enjoy every delight and luxury that can be afforded to a kitty, Blackie! Grayson and I will keep you in our purrs.
Both the Brooks County Sheriff’s Office and the Humane Society of the United States are offering rewards for information leading to the identification, arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for the burning of the cats.
The Humane Society is offering up to $2,500 for information.
Grayson and I sure hope they find the guilty party.

Poor little kitty, but at least now, he is feeling no pain across the bridge. I hope they find out who did this.
ReplyDeletePoor Little Jim . . . but at least he won't be suffering anymore at the bridge. I hope they find the one responsible. That is just awful.
ReplyDeleteWay to go, Blackie! I'm purring for you, buddy.
This just makes me sick to my stomach, and what is even worse is the inhumane idiots that did this will get a slap on the hand, there is just no justice anymore in the world today, it's sickening. God bless them and they are in a much, much better place now and they are finally happy and care free.
ReplyDeleteSome things just hurt too much...
ReplyDeleteand one can never comprehend how such things happen.
Bless his heart. He is now pain free.
ReplyDeleteWe pray the person(s) responsible for this merciless, monstrous act are found and punished to the full extent of the law.
I cannot fathom the mind and heart behind such evil cruelty. I'm thankful for Blackie's recovery and for the absence of pain and suffering and fear for Little Jim.
ReplyDeleteEvil should be punished with the
ReplyDeletesame crime we think..
Perhaps the asshat that committed this crime, would benefit from the same act..
Sigh.. or is at least caught and
punished.
We are glad that Little Jim is at peace now, and that his last hours were in the hands of loving people.
Thank you for the update! THese babies had been on our minds all week. We are sad that Little Jim had to suffer so much but know he is running free now. Thank goodness that Blackiw is in his way to recovery! Hopefully the fools that did this will slip up and 'brag' to the right person and get cought!
ReplyDeleteYes they will have plenty of friends, and I hope Blackie has a healthy happy life ahead.
ReplyDeletePoor Little Jim, at least he's out of pain now. We send more purrs to help Blackie heal. :(
ReplyDeletewe hopes that they find them and they get what they deserve.
ReplyDeleteOh poor little one. I hope they find those people. That was a horrible thing. We will purr for Blackie to live a long and happy, healthy life.
ReplyDeleteWe hope for the best for those kitties.
ReplyDeleteWe think you look very, very pretty with all the catnip though....
Purrs,

ReplyDeletebut you KNOW what we wish for the perpetrators . . . .
We are purrring and praying for Blackie.
ReplyDeleteIf we said what we wanted to about the hateful ones that did this, we would be into some bad words. There is a special, painful place waiting for them, so we won't say anything.

I am so sad for sweet Little Jim. He hardly even had a chance to live before he had to go to the Bridge. But I am glad he is not in pain any longer. And thank goodness Blackie is doing better!
ReplyDeleteI sure hope they find who did this to those poor kitties too. There's no excuse for that. These stories really upset me, to think how cruel people are.
ReplyDeleteLittle Jim is at peace now. We need to get serious about tougher animal cruelty laws.
ReplyDeleteThis is so tragic! I can't help it, I know I shouldn't say it but I think that I would like "An eye for an eye" with these wicked people!
ReplyDeleteWhat a shame. I do hope they catch this horrid individual and throw the book at him/her. I can't imagine hurting our pets that love us unconditionally.
ReplyDeleteHave a terrific day. Big hug. :)
Poor Little Jim. Rest easy sweet baby, we'll meet you at the Bridge.
ReplyDeleteWe hopes that Blackie finds a wonderful loving forever home and can learn to trust people again.
We also hopes that someone finds those horrible awful nasty people that did that to those darling kittens and shoves a firecracker up THEIR bum and see how much they like it.
ahem.

We are so sorry for Little Jim, he had such a short life and it ended in such a horrible way. We know Whiskers will take him under his wing and care for him now that he is at the bridge.
ReplyDeleteWe are purring for Blackie's recovery. ~S,S & C

First we want to say how beautiful you look :)
ReplyDeleteAnd next, this is such awful news, but it's good they are no longer in any pain and that the one little fella is making a good recovery.
Humans can be so cruel ... it makes no sense. Here's praying the monster gets caught and brought to justice.
Sad and happy at the same time. We are sad to hear about sweet little Jim, but so happy to know that Blackie will make a full recovery. We will continue to hope the monsters who did this are caught.

I am so sorry to hear this news. How can humans be so cruel.
ReplyDeletePurrs,
JB
Poor Little Jim. At least he isn't suffering any more. I bet he was greeted warmly by the other Bridge kitties. I am glad that Blackie is expected to recover. I hope that the person or people who did this are caught and punished. It's just horrible.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the update although I wish the news was different. Even though I've had time to digest this horrific thing that someone did to these kittens, I just still cannot believe someone can be so heartless. It is a state of mind I can't even begin to comprehend and I hope the person(s) are caught and punished severely.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear about Little Jim! I hope the authorities will take this case (and other like it) very seriously - it is good that the newspaper is writing about it, even though it is extremely hard to read.
ReplyDeleteWe are all sending purrs for Blackie.
Awwwwww..... I am sorry to hear that Little Jim is gone.... but I take comfort that he's free from all pain and suffering now. Bye bye!
ReplyDeleteSuch good news about Blackie -- joy joy!
Poor Little Jim. Our woman's eyes filled up when she read the story.
ReplyDeleteIt's difficult to comprehend how anyone could be that cruel and why animal cruelty laws are so anaemic!
Ms. P and Cinza
It is tragic that this terrible thing happened - and now the second little kitten Jim has had to go to the bridge. As you say, at least his suffering is over and he can be at Peace.
ReplyDeleteWe will all purr and pray for Blackie. he deserves the best life there could be.
The people who do this evil things are sick - but I cannot find it in my heart to forgive them.
Milo's Mom.
I just have no sympathy for those who are cruel to animals...i am normally a very peaceful person, but when i hear about people hurting animals it definitely brings out my angry streak...I truly hope this person is found and justice brought to the situation
