Animal protectors asked for help this Monday for a cat that is missing part of its face and was seen on a street in Havana.

Dianeya Pérez reported in the Facebook group "Sociedad Protectora de Animales en Cuba" that the feline was in Lawton, "on Gertrudis Street between Segunda and Primera."

"Someone who can help him, an animal activist," Pérez asked, noting that he couldn't pick up the cat because he has two dogs.

In the comments section, many opined that the facial injuries of the cat could be the result of a fight with a dog or an accident.

Most agreed that the feline needed immediate help and shared the post to save the animal's life.

A person named Sarwin PapaGato considered that the cat suffers from squamous cells, "if that's the case, there is no cure," he stated.

Due to the inaction of the Cuban regime in the protection of animals, activists often take on the responsibility of caring for pets and also for their rights.

Last Friday, a puppy was abandoned on a corner in the Playa municipality of Havana with a sign asking for help in caring for it.

A Facebook post states that the puppy was found at the corner of 5th B and 116, with a sign indicating that the animal has diarrhea and cannot drink milk.

Also in recent days, Cuban animal rights activist Yenney Caballero celebrated on social media the successful operation of Simbad, a puppy who suffered from a bone fracture that prevented him from walking.

The activist expressed on Facebook: "We did it once again, and I am happy. Together, we saved many lives." Days earlier, she had requested help to raise 18,000 pesos needed to cover the dog's surgical intervention.
