I have attached a photo of Billy when he was only about 2-3 months old. He is now almost
8 months old.

who stole Billy, the cat, from PetSmart on Youree Drive in Shreveport, LA

Wow -- are you sure this was a Petsmart? Our Petsmart has one key, locked in an office and you need to get a manager to get the key. Its standard company practice. And even though I volunteer for the rescue, if I am working, I can not show people cats... not even if the "nice" manager is on duty that day.

Sad story. :(

Darn it! Why did that have to STEAL one.... It was just wonderful of the "adult" (?) here to teach the child how to steal!!

I hope they find the people and get the kitty back.

Thats Just Awful, And You Wonder What Kind Of Life This Cat Is Going To Have With Thieves.
That Pretty Lax Of Petsmart, Not To Have The Cages Locked.
At Least That Cat Is Altered.
I Hope That Cat Will Have A Good Life.
