CITGO
Citgo was captured at, you guessed it, a Citgo truck stop in Sturtevant, WI. We fuel our trucks there and one of our drivers was told that a cat had been hanging around the truck stop. It was the middle of winter with a cold front coming in. The weather reports were calling for temperatures well below zero with wind chills reaching 30 degrees below. I was not told about the cat previously by my driver or by the Citgo employees. When I went in to pay for my fuel I was asked if I was there to get the cat? What cat? The Citgo employees were really worried about a cat and the freezing temperatures. They told me how it had been seen in the area and that people would often throw it food from the Wendy's attached to the truck stop. The cat would hide under cars and curl up next to the entrance doors to get warm. They could not let it in to the building, not knowing if it was friendly. I rushed home and got some live traps and instead of sleeping spent several hours waiting for the cat to take the bait. It turns out the cat was quite friendly and quite sick. Happy Endings shelter took the cat and nursed it back to health. The cat was so small and cute it was quickly adopted.
