18-Year-Old Cat Allegedly Kidnapped by Stranger Deserves Justice

Target: Hon. Eric Adams, Mayor of New York City

Goal: Ensure a thorough investigation and the safe return of Antonio, an apparently stolen tabby cat, to his rightful home.

A deeply distressing incident has unfolded in Queens, where Antonio, an 18-year-old tabby cat known and loved by the community, was allegedly stolen from outside K’Glen Deli and Sari Sari Store. Video footage captured the moment a stranger approached and snatched Antonio, carrying him away from the deli where he had lived for years.

Antonio is not just a pet; he is a beloved member of the community who has brought joy to countless people over the years.

Antonio deserves to be reunited with those who care for him, and the community deserves to feel safe knowing their beloved pets are protected.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]
