A former Champlain Towers South resident visited The Kitty Campus on Friday and confirmed that the feline was hers, Vlasek said,\u201d the AP reported.<\/p>\n<p>Vlasek wrote on Facebook: \u201cWe are so grateful to be able to help in any small way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava&nbsp;mentioned Binx\u2019s rescue in a news conference, saying the cat was recognized by a volunteer who was helping to feed cats near the rubble.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m glad that this small miracle could bring some light into the lives of a grieving family today and could provide a bright spot for our whole community in the midst of this terrible tragedy,\u201d Levine Cava said at the press conference.<\/p>\n<p>Levine Cava also said at the time that animal control workers are still placing live traps in an attempt to catch other pets that may have been able to escape the collapse. Officials now say 79 people were killed in the collapse, with another 61 still missing.<\/p>\n<p>As The Daily Wire previously <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/a-woman-wanted-to-save-a-pet-before-surfside-condo-was-demolished-her-request-was-denied-but-rescue-attempts-were-already-made\">reported<\/a>, concerned rescuers attempted to delay the demolition of the remaining section of the condo building in order to try and rescue more animals.<\/p>\n<p>The Miami Herald&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.miamiherald.com\/news\/local\/community\/miami-dade\/miami-beach\/article252574248.html\">reported<\/a>&nbsp;that Paula Phillips, an attorney representing paralegal and animal rescue volunteer Stacey Karron, filed an emergency petition to save a stranded pet around 9:30 p.m. the day the condo was demolished. The request was denied and the building was demolished not long after.<\/p>\n<p>The motion absolved anyone of any liability should Karron hurt herself while searching for pets who were still trapped in the crumbling condo building. While the name of the pet was not mentioned during the hearing or the motion, the New York Post&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2021\/07\/05\/womans-bid-to-save-pet-rejected-before-remaining-condo-razed\/\">identified<\/a>&nbsp;it as possibly a cat named Coco.<\/p>\n<p>While pet owners may have been horrified to learn Karron\u2019s motion was denied, presumably sentencing Coco to death, but there is hope the feline escaped. Miami-Dade County Attorney Dave Murray argued against Karron\u2019s motion, saying \u201cThis is not a case where the county has sat on their hands.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Murray and others insisted that numerous rescue attempts had been made to save animals remaining in the building, and that letting people in to try and rescue more animals would have put many people in danger.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
