A woman has spoken of her horror after rescuing a cat found covered in gruesome third degree burns at a car wash.
At 9am on Sunday, June 2 Katie Hayes, who runs the cat charity Pawpurrs Halfway House, received a panicked phone call from a man who said he had seen a cat running out of a car wash ‘crying in distress’.
Katie, 46, immediately rushed over to the car wash and was horrified to find a cat ‘severely scolded’.

“I did not expect to see the state that the cat was in. I deal with a lot of cats that are in a really terrible mess but this was something else. I was so distressed and upset.
“The whole lower half of his back was severely scolded,” she said.
Katie claims she asked staff at the car wash who owned the cat and that they said it belonged to their boss.
“The cat had clearly been burnt by some kind of substance and they had just left it. You could see by looking at it it was either boiling hot water or some kind of chemical,” she said.
Katie said there were rat traps ‘everywhere’ which led her to suspect the cat was being used to catch rats.
“The cat had a litter tray for its bed and there was an empty food bowl and fat food wrappers on the floor. They were clearly feeding it some food and hoping it would hang around and kill rats,” she said.
Katie scooped up the cat and took him straight to Ashleigh Vets in Chorlton. The vets there were horrified by what they saw.
“The vets were absolutely mortified. They said in all their time of doing their job they had never seen a cat with such extreme third degree burns.
“You could still feel heat coming off him and fur was

Carlos Aguilar Form and content align in the uniquely conceived and delightfully offbeat supernatural adventure “Ghost Cat Anzu.” For a movie about a reality where mortals and otherworldly spirits coexist on the same plane, the filmmakers decided to compound the flesh-and-bone realism of live action cinema and animation’s fantastical qualities. While the plot takes some jarring turns, its impish tone stays consistent throughout, making for a wildly enjoyable (if a bit perplexing) Japanese animated effort on its own wavelength.
Mark Sutherland “I spend a lot of my time trying to plan these things,” Taylor Swift said with a grin — and with classic understatement — as she strapped on her acoustic guitar for the “surprise songs” segment of her “Eras” tour stop in Cardiff, Wales. “I like to challenge myself to do different things every night [so] every single show is unique.” Considering the unprecedented levels of attention the tour has attracted since it kicked off in Glendale, Arizona, 100 shows and over a year ago, this seemed like a bold statement.

Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic The void that Crowded House left in the periods of time that the group disbanded a couple of times over the years didn’t exactly get filled in by a lot of other bands with equal facilities for melody, mystery and tightness. Frontman Neil Finn didn’t give up his gift for those things when he was making solo or duo projects in the band’s dormant periods, but something about the Crowded House banner — as well as the constituency of the band itself — lends a focus that leads fans to expect, and get, something so strong.
