The volunteer was unable to return the kitten, named "Little Squeesars," back to the stadium construction site so the 6-month-old cat was taken to a shelter in Detroit.
After about a month, the shelter informed the volunteer the kitten would be euthanized.
"I couldn't let that happen," the volunteer said. "These compassionate construction workers reached out to save her; how could I let them down by letting the kitten they'd rescued be put down?"
The volunteer contacted the Humane Society of Huron Valley who managed to find a safe outdoor location to place Little Squeesars.
"Returning unsocial cats to their original location, where they were thriving, is a really important part of TNR," HSHV's Community Cat Coordinator, Cheryl Szkutnicki said. "But in cases where there is demotion or other direct threats like animal cruelty, we look for relocation options."
