A $500 reward is being offered over the shooting of a Tauranga cat.

Animal abuse watchdog Paw Justice has posted the reward for information leading to the identity and apprehension of whoever shot a cat belonging to an Otumoetai family.

The cat, TJ, had to have one of its legs amputated and Paw Justice also offered to pay the $1000 vet bill.
