Tuesday, Oct. 29, 2019, is National Cat Day and to bring awareness to homeless cats the Butler Eagle is highlighting Autumn, who just got her stitches out recently from a knee surgery. Autumn is a young cat who came into the Butler County Humane Society recently with a broken knee and was taken to a veterinarian for a surgery that cost about $1,000, according to Alicia Sharer, the community outreach and volunteer coordinator of the Butler County Humane Society. To pay for the surgery, the humane society held a fundraiser on its Facebook page and according to Sharer, the community came together and chipped in the cost for Autumn’s surgery in just a couple of hours. Sharer said by the time THEY arrived at the vet, the fundraiser had reached its goal. The fundraiser ended with a total of $1,320.Lauryn Halahurich/BUTLER EAGLE
