A cat has lost some of its claws and paw padding after being glued to the road of a Minnesota interstate.

A couple stopped to help the cat, thinking it had been hit by a car. Timothy the cat is now being cared for by a foster family but will later be put up for adoption.

"It's a mouth dropper," Rosey Quinn of Second Chance Rescue told KSFY.com, adding that the rescue had never seen anything like it.

Case Updates

Retired Hollywood actor Ken Wahl is joining the effort to find whoever glued a cat to state Highway 60 in southwestern Minnesota. Wahl said Tuesday he is offering to the reward fund the Golden Globe award he won for the 1980s TV show "Wiseguy.'' He said he is appalled by the animal abuse and worried that whoever did it could be dangerous.

Travelers found the cat on December 18, 2009, and brought it to the Second Chance Rescue Center across the South Dakota border in Sioux Falls. The 7-month-old orange tabby had been glued to the road by its feet and nose, and it died five days later.

Rescue Center Director Rosey Quinn says donations coming in from across the country have pushed the reward fund to about $12,000 for information leading to a conviction in the case, which originally had been reported to have happened on Interstate 90
