Rebeccah Corbier and her family want to say thank you - but they don't know who to thank.
Their silver tabby, "Bill", was lying on the road near their Victoria St. home and a good Samaritan stopped to check on him. The cat was dying or dead and the unknown stranger scrounged up a box from a neighbour and took the animal to Northumberland Veterinary Services.
He was dead, but Rebeccah wants to thank the stranger for treating Bill with respect during the last few moments of his life
The reason Rebeccah is interested in finding this man is because he should be recognized for being so kind and taking time from his day to care for a cat he didn't even know. "I know that if my kids, who were playing outside at the time, had seen their beloved cat lying dead on the road they would have been devastated. My husband and I were at work and the kids were with a babysitter which would have made it even more traumatic for them. I don't know who hit Bill, but I don't even care about that since I have to believe it was an accident. All I'm hoping for is a chance to thank this kind man in person for being so considerate," says the cat owner.
"We have since buried Bill and he is resting peacefully with the butterflies and birds out on our property! It will take some time to get used to living without him but knowing he was well cared for in his last minutes and treated with respect makes it a little easier."
