I have to take my cat on day trips to keep him away from some monster trying to shoot him

A cat owner is taking her pet on day trips with her just to 'keep him safe from the monster who continues to shoot him', and claims he has PTSD from his experiences.

Samantha Mansi's cat is already on his third life after being shot three times. She was told she was very lucky that her beloved four-year-old feline was still alive as the air gun had once again just missed his vital organs.

The 37-year-old from Mumbles, Swansea, described her ginger tom cat- who she did not want named due to fears for his safety- as her "best friend". The first attack was in May, 2021, when the cat was shot in his stomach. Unable to remove the pellet inside of him, vets sent Samantha and her cat home after informing her that he had been shot and the attacker had just missed his vital organs.
