We have another update on the Nancy Segula from Garfield Heights illegal stray cat feeding story. She was sentenced to 10 days in jail (to be reviewed) for being in contempt of court for disobeying a court order to not feed stray as it is illegal to feed ferals and strays in Garfield Heights. The authorities removed the cats from her care and there was a question as to what might happen to the cats. Well we have this update from cleveland.com in the form of a video.

This is obviously good news. Someone criticised me for me naive in believing that the cats in the care of Nancy Segula would or might be treated decently and with kindness. It seems I was right at least to a certain extent because there are more than four cats and we don’t what is happening to the others. Let’s hope the other are treated in the same way. If I hear news I will pass it on.
Comment on Facebook about the video:
Rob Bowers · Good luck on the adoptions. It is a shame that Garfield Hts felt they had to be so harsh to a lady that tried to help defenseless cats! Such irony that the city has the name Garfield in their name!
The name Garfield Heights is ironic because of the Garfield cat cartoon series which was very popular.
This is my comment from the day that the site was having issues. Hmm. It was in the fb section also.
I would like to hear about the other kitties and more about the specific rescue group. I didn’t see where someone was praising the condition of the kitties or the great job the illegal caregiver did. But that’s great if they did praise her. It can only help her case.
Thanks Anne. Sorry that this comments section is not functioning as it should. It is a complicated issue. I agree with your comment by the way.
Hmm. This is good news. Perhaps some of the caretakers realize that this story is public. Hopefully these people are just good people.
