Picking up the tabby! Donor pays cat's $623 vet bill
LYNN, Mass. (AP) — An anonymous donor has paid a more than $600 veterinarian bill for a cat rescued from a Massachusetts apartment fire.
The Daily Item reports that the 1-year-old cat named Christopher survived the fire earlier this month that left his owner homeless, but required a week at an animal hospital.
The cat is being taken care of by another couple while the owner, Michelle Dupont, gets back on her feet.
That couple set up a crowdsourcing site to pay the $623 bill, but a woman who wanted to remain anonymous took care of it.
The donor says she was "touched" by Christopher's story and hopes donations to the online fundraiser go toward Dupont's recovery.
