A cat was discovered at a multi-story carpark in Tampines with a rubber band around her neck by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA).
While the rubber band is elastic, it was still way too tight around the cat’s neck that it ended up cutting deeply into her flesh. Photos posted by the SPCA as part of an advisory on its Instagram page showed that the tightness of the rubber band resulted in the cat’s neck being partially cut through.
And since the rubber band is a foreign object which can become a breeding ground for bacteria, it increases the chances for an infection to occur in the wound.
Here are the photos if you’re curious to see what happened to the cat.
But I must warn you, it is definitely not for the faint-hearted.
Warning: Sensitive and graphic images ahead.
The cat was brought to a clinic where the rubber band was removed.
After doing so, surgery was done to ensure that all infected body tissues were removed before the wound was stitched up so that the cat can heal better.
It is not known how the cat ended up getting a rubber band around her neck or why this happened, but the SPCA thought that this would be a good chance to spread awareness and educate the public.
It said in its Instagram post, “There is grave danger behind putting a tight object around an animal, as it can cause much pain and discomfort, or even death.”
A Happy Ending
Thankfully, the cat has healed completely ever since the surgery and she has been adopted by a family.
While the SPCA is doing everything that it can to ensure that animal abuse doesn’t occur, life isn’t always so merry. If you would like to save these poor animals, you can do so by staying vigilant and checking on the strays in your neighbourhood every once in a while, or donating to SPCA so that they have the funds to continue rescuing abandoned and abused animals.
