Michigan police, veterinarians save cat shot with arrow as shelter offers reward for offending archer's arrest

Michigan police rescued a cat found with an arrow piercing its body, collapsing both lungs, and took it to an adoption center for further help.

Dearborn, Michigan, police rescued a cat with an arrow in its body, and now, the adoption center that took in the cat is offering a reward for any information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the culprit who took aim at the feline.

The Friends for Animals of Metro Detroit said in a Facebook post Wednesday that Santana was delivered to them by the Dearborn Police Department about 24 hours after he was shot with an arrow.

Shelter officials quickly got Santana to Affiliated Veterinary Service, where he was given lifesaving surgery to remove the arrow, which pierced both of his lungs, causing them to collapse.

"In his recovery, we’ve been amazed by how sweet and social Santana is," the post read. "Our staff and volunteers will continue to take great care of him until he is ready to find his forever home."
