First and most importantly, a huge thank you to the admins for allowing me to post somewhat outside of the norm!!♥️♥️
My name is Julie, I live in Florida and I’m praying for some help.
The last two years, I’ve been traveling back-and-forth to Ohio for months at a time taking care of my sister. She passed away in April, so we decided to keep two of her kitties.
We had flights to Ohio (where my sister lived) with plans to drive them back to Florida.
Due to the global outage, our flight plans were canceled so we looked into animal transport services. The one we found was highly recommended with amazing reviews.
As it turns out, the transporter made plans to pick up and drop off as many animals as possible on his way to Florida so he decided to open their crate in Commerce City Colorado and my beautiful Gizmo got out…..
The negligence is infuriating and this has been beyond heartbreaking….
Had I known they were going to go from Ohio to Florida via Colorado, I would’ve NEVER put the kitties through that! If you know me, you know I’m an animal lover and in some cases, I prefer animals over most humans♥️ (we have six rescues currently and counting!)
I’ve posted this on so many pages, animal shelter’s, NextDoor accounts of locals willing to help and Platforms in Colorado so again, I appreciate the opportunity to cast a wider net.
We have found a local TNR trapper who has successfully found many cats so now we are praying for sightings to narrow down the location. My husband also flew out last Friday and arrived home Tuesday, saddened that he couldn’t find our kitty. We now understand the complexity of the search.
The transporter said he got out at the TA at 5101 Quebec St., crossed over all six lanes of traffic as there’s not really any at 3 o’clock in the morning. He ran towards Dick’s stadium and took a right and he went as far as 60th St. near the Civic Center/City Hall.
There are neighborhoods behind those facilities plus we think he may be hiding out in the USPS Bulk facility or again in the neighborhood behind it.
I’m going to include some pictures along with the flyer our local trapper created for us that has her contact information:
Thank you to anyone willing to help post on your next-door or if you’ve seen him, we are desperate to get him home♥️
