Omaha animal advocates hope to find the driver responsible for cat tossed from car window

Jennifer Abel, a Muddy Paws volunteer witnessed the incident. Abel said on a phone call Monday morning, with 3 news now reporter, Molly Hudson, she was headed southbound near 72nd and Grover streets toward I-80 when a vehicle, two cars in front of her, in the middle lane, tossed a black cat out the passenger side window. Abel said she first thought it was a black t-shirt that was thrown from the window, and then realized it was a cat. Once she was able to get it it, she got out of her car, picked up the cat and held it as she drove to urgent care. The cat later died at urgent care. Now animal lovers in the community are chipping in, in hopes of finding the person responsible.
