League City Shelter Seeks Help to Trap Gray Cat Coated in Red Dye

Residents are asked to report sightings to League City Animal Care for professional trapping followed by veterinary treatment.

Overview

  • A gray cat with bright red splotches that appear to be paint or dye has been seen roaming neighborhoods in League City and photos were shared by the municipal shelter.
  • League City Animal Care said its team is actively working to safely trap the cat so it can be brought into the shelter and examined by a vet.
  • Officials warned people not to approach, feed, or try to catch the animal because those actions can interfere with the shelter’s trapping methods.
  • The shelter has used social media to crowdsource sightings and its post about the cat has drawn large public attention and hundreds of shares.
  • No law enforcement announcement of an active cruelty investigation or charges has been made yet and the shelter said it will investigate further after the cat is captured.
