This photo provided by Humane Animal Rescue on July 16, 2019, shows a cat being treated at the Humane Animal Rescue in Pittsburgh.  The animal rescue group says someone strapped firecrackers to the cat's front left paw with rubber bands and set them off, causing such severe injuries the animal's leg had to be amputated. The cat, who staffers have named Pickles, is on the mend and will be up for adoption soon.  (Zac Seymour/Humane Animal Rescue via AP)
