CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. – Montgomery County Animal Care and Control is asking for the public’s help to identify a suspect that officials believe dumped two kittens on Hazelwood Rd.
One kitten is deceased and the other is receiving medical care at Tiny Town Animal Clinic for abrasions and injuries to his mouth.
An Animal Control officer drove past a black object curled up in the snow on the side of Hazelwood Road on the way to work Feb. 11.
Approximately 30 feet down the road the officer discovered a deceased 6-month-old dilute tortoise shell kitten. The officer turned around to check on the black object curled up in the snow and found the second kitten trembling and lethargic.
The officer picked up the black tortoise shell kitten and immediately transported her to Tiny Town Vet Clinic. The deceased kitten was transported to Animal Control.
If anyone saw the kittens being dumped, struck, killed, or injured, or if you recognize the kittens, please call Animal Control at 931-648-5750.
