A kitten who nearly died after being encased in spray foam and dumped in the garbage has not only made a full recovery, but also found his forever home.
A garbage collector from Washington County, Oregon, discovered the kitten — now named Lucky McFoamy — in a trash can during his rounds. Lucky could barely move as his little face and body were encased in hardened spray foam, yet he somehow managed to cry out and alert the worker to his presence.
After the Hillsboro Vet Clinic cleaned Lucky up and gave him a clean bill of health, he moved on to the Bonnie Hays Animal Shelter, run by Washington County Animal Services.
Now, Lucky is heading to his new home with delighted guardian Denise.
“Denise was one of the first people to see him when he was brought to a local vet clinic for emergency treatment, and she is elated to make him part of her family,” said the shelter in a Facebook update. “Denise tells us that Lucky will be an indoor cat and will have two other cats and a dog as companions.”
A Lady Freethinker petition urging local police to find the person responsible garnered more than 30,000 signatures. But despite efforts — and after determining the kitten was a stray — the culprit has not yet been found.
Thanks to the quick actions of a caring garbage collector, and the great veterinarians and shelter workers who cared for Lucky, this story has a heart-warming ending. We wish Lucky a long, healthy life with his new family, and urge police to keep looking for this innocent kitten’s attacker.

Le monstre qui a fait cela ne mérite qu’une chose : d’être éliminé
Whom ever did this doesn’t deserve to live! I pray on everything sacred in this world….find the person(s) responsible and simply strike them dead!!!!
I cannot say anything “peaceful nor family friendly” due to how horrific this all is.
THE PUNISHMENT OF THE JERKS WHO DID THIS CRUELTY MUST MATCH THE CRIME COMMITTED.
I HOPE THE JERKS WHO DID THIS CRUELTY TO THIS INNOCENT CAT GET LONG JAIL TIME WITH SPRAY FOAM ON THEIR FACES & HEFTY FINES…
Thank you Denise for adopting Lucky – Love you Lucky !
Poor little Lucky McFoamy! Whomever did this are sick-ass, low-down cowardly jerks. Idiots with TOO much time on their hands. Pure EVIL! They had every intention for this kitten to die, so it was 1st degree attempted murder! Premeditated! Most likely teenagers or less who are evil & if not caught & dealt with HARSHLY with fines AND jail time, not suspended or probated, they must serve jail time & no wimpy sentence! They tried to, meant to, murder this sweet, innocent, helpless kitten. Thank God that man was so alert to Lucky & quickly got him help & thank you to the vet who helped this sweet baby! These perverted perpetrators deserve to be encased in spray foam with hands cuffed and feet shackled & leave them that way long enough for them to feel EXACTLY what Lucky felt…….can’t move, barely, BARELY able to breath, hot, barely ably to make a sound. But Lucky was able to muster up enough strength to MEOW one time loud enough to let someone know “Help! I’m ALIVE, I need your help!” You go Lucky and thank you Denise for giving Lucky McFoamy a loving FUREVER home! Lucky certainly deserves it!
Don’t send me anything else if you tell me the formate for comments.

Beyond human comprehension! What would motivate a human being to encase an innocent kitten in spray foam, knowing she would slowly suffocate to death. Any who could do something so depraved is extremely dangerous and should be forced to undergo extensive psychological counseling (AT THEIR EXPENSE!). They are not fit to be allowed in civilized society.
Thank you to those who helped this kitten and wishing him all the very best for the future.
Boy, do we love happy endings on this site…because all to often, we are left feeling such despair for the human race. Many, many, many thanks to the hero garbage collector, the vets & everyone who saved this tiny, yet very significant life!!

Please, please I beg ALL Governments if the world to stop playing with animal abusers. We need Bible time lions dens back to get rid of these evil barbarians. We have enough crocodikles lions and sharks to feed these abusers to Publically so the world can see. That WILL put an end to the evil of animal and children abuse once and for all. Stop wasting taxpayers money on these barbarians.

So glad this poor little baby is getting the love he deserves and probably wanted from the monster that sprayed him.
