Cat Found Tied To Dumpster In West Hartford

WEST HARTFORD, CT — The West Hartford Animal Control is asking for the public’s assistance with locating the owner of a cat that was found tied to a dumpster over the weekend. The pictured domestic short-haired cat was found tied to a dumpster in Wolcott Park in West Hartford on Feb. 4, according to the animal control.

A note that was left behind said the cat’s name was “Sparky.” Animal control officials say someone saw a man in a pick-up truck in the area of the dumpster.

“Unfortunately, they did not get a plate,” the animal control wrote in a post on Facebook. “We are looking for any information on who the owner may be. In the meantime, Sparky is warm and safe.”

Anyone with information is asked to call the West Hartford Animal Control at 860-570-8818.
