hear about the cat and the whole situation. I would for sure let the shelter know. They should not be letting any of those other cats out of the facility.
As for suing, I am not an attorney so not sure what the law is. Maybe you saying something to them and letting them know how much you spent, they will offer something.
Try don’t have much $$ but might have insurance for something like this.
Tough situation all around and I feel really bad for you and for sure your wife.
