“Despite her ordeal, she’s healthy and now being cared for at ACS,” city officials said in a Facebook post on Thursday.

The kitten, named Nimbus, is now in need of a foster family until she’s ready to go to a forever home.

Anyone looking to foster an animal can sign up on the ACS website.

“Most fosters will stay in foster care for an average of 1-2 months though many get adopted far sooner than that,” the website states. “Depending on the need there are a few that may be in care longer due to age, illness, injury, or behavior.”
