As 'Cocaine Bear' is currently in theaters, a 'Cocaine Cat' found in a Cincinnati neighborhood with cocaine in its system was released from animal care and is recovering at the Cincinnati Zoo.
Once they found Amiry, they brought him over to their facility, where the staff at the CAC were treating his broken leg and called in a big cat expert whose specialty was to handle animals of bigger sizes and various species.
"This was the first exotic cat I saw," Anderson told ABC News. "I was thinking what a gorgeous animal and unique cat, definitely something you don't see every day." Amiry's care lasted 36 hours at the CAC before he transferred to the Cincinnati Zoo, where there are more resources to care for Amiry's full rehabilitation."Amiry is young and very curious," said the lead trainer of the Cincinnati Zoo's Cat Ambassador Program, Linda Castañeda, in a statement to ABC News. "He is exploring his new space and eating well, both great signs of progress. The CAP team is very excited to have him in our care.
