Letter to the editor: Thanks for cat help

We would like to thank a very brave and caring young man who lives in The Dalles. We lost our cat Friday afternoon in the vicinity of Snipes and 10th streets. It is not uncommon for the cat (whose name is K.C., alias Kitty Cat) to do a “walk about” for a day or two. She was a “stray” who was dropped off at Faith Lutheran Church about two years ago.

On Sunday, we became concerned and started to talk with neighbors and get on social media. It appears that this young man took our cat home and attempted to show it love and compassion until a parent could take the cat to the vet.

From what we understand, the cat did die. Thank you so much to this nice young man and his parents. We greatly appreciate your love and compassion for our cat.

You are the type of person who makes The Dalles a wonderful place to live and work. Thank you and God bless you.

John and Carol Westhafer
