What a sad story. Kuhio was a very beautiful cat, I especially like the picture of you carrying him in a backpack on a bike. Sounds like he is very missed, I hope nothing like this will happen again. I am shocked at the shelter, it could have been so preventable. I'm so sorry for your loss. I wonder if microchipping might have made a difference? My cats are getting microchipped as soon as I make appointments, but I still wonder about shelters and such not having the equipment to scan.
