Please feel free to send this on to your contacts, if you know anyone in the
area who could help or who may have contacts who might etc... The cat in
question is an Aby, they have very thin coats and cannot handle the cold.

Subject: [AdoptAnAby] Found Aby Indianapolis area, need help

We have information and Aby that is out in the cold in a rural area
near Indianapolis.  We need help in catching it and fostering it
while it is being evaluated.  It has been outside for at least a
month.  The people that notified us have been feeding it.  They sent
us a photo and it is indeed an Aby, huddled against the cold.  Noone
has been able to approach this Aby, it runs.

We need someone in the area with a live trap, or willing to borrow
one from a local shelter and we need someone who can help capture
this unfortunate cat.  This cat can't last that long in the cold

We also need foster care -- preferably someone who has worked with
feral cats before.
