A cat who was found with severe injuries is now recuperating at a foster home.
On Thursday night, officers with the Lincoln County Humane Society were called to a building near Pine Street North and Albert Street West after getting a call about a cat found in a box.
The cat, who the shelter is naming Domino, had extensive wounds on her sides, head, shoulder and abdomen.
The wounds appeared to be scabbing over.
Once the clinic removed her fur, they discovered burns between her ears and the knuckles on her toes.
After a 90 minute surgery to remove the dead tissue and clean the wounds, Domino is now said to be recovering at a foster home.
It's believed that Domino is around 7 months old, and her injuries occurred a few weeks ago.
The shelter will place her up for adoption once she is completely healed.
Anyone who wishes to make a donation to pay for Domino's care can call the shelter at 905-682-0767 or click here.
