To whom it may concern,

I dropped off this community cat's remains to aspca who will investigate. Affectionately known as Fluffy, she is only one of many of our commjnity cats deliberately harmed. No further accusations will be made until ASPCA has investigated.

For anyone who contributed to our efforts to fund a necropsy on our own please feel free to reach out to me directly. It will remain open for now as a donation towards any rescue actually willing to help us with the others . Please reach out of you would prefer a refund

We are raising at least $1000 for clarity and protection for community cats.

Help Us Fund a Necropsy & Toxicology for Fluffy

Seeking Answers. Seeking Accountability. Seeking Safety

Fluffy was a beloved, cared-for community cat in the Bronx (10458). He was found suddenly deceased with blood coming from his mouth and no visible external injuries.

Earlier that evening, he had been seen eating normally alongside his companions.

There were:

• No visible lacerations

• No signs of blunt-force trauma

• No external injuries to explain the bleeding

The sudden onset raises serious concern that a toxic substance may have been ingested.

We are not making accusations.

We are seeking answers.

The only way to determine cause of death is through a professional veterinary necropsy (animal autopsy) with toxicology testing.

Why We Are Raising Funds

Veterinary diagnostic labs estimate:

• Basic necropsy: $125–$250

• Full diagnostic necropsy: $325–$850+

• Forensic/legal case review: $800–$1,250+

• Toxicology tests: $45–$60 per test

• Additional fees may include histopathology, documentation, and disposal

Costs vary depending on the scope required and whether it becomes a forensic case.

Because this may involve suspected poisoning, comprehensive toxicology may be necessary to establish facts.

Our Goal

We are raising $1,200 to cover:

✔ Comprehensive necropsy

✔ Toxicology screening

✔ Forensic documentation (if applicable)

✔ Associated lab and handling fees

If the total cost is less than expected, remaining funds will be:

• Donated to a reputable rescue willing to assist

OR

• Paid directly to a veterinary diagnostic laboratory or veterinarian performing the services

Funds will *v*not** be used for personal expenses.

We are committed to transparency and will provide updates and receipts.

Why This Matters

If a toxic substance was intentionally placed in a residential area, this poses a risk not only to animals, but to children and residents.

Fluffy mattered.

Community cats matter.

Public safety matters.

Without diagnostic confirmation, there can be no clarity.
