I found this comment under her latest upload, could be a troll, or could be something.
It's never a good sign when the post starts with "SOMEONE said..." No source. No info. All vague. Also claiming they found Rarity at "
one of your local animal shelter
s." Again, no name. No leads. If "SOMEONE" did find Rarity, why not give details on WHERE? Why be this vague?
My first instinct is it's a troll. Or someone stupid enough to repeat something without questioning or confirming it for themself. But let's humor them. It's easy enough to confirm or deny their claims. Let's look through every animal shelter, humane society, animal rescue establishment in Oshkosh and all surrounding cities.

All horses, unsurprisingly, but I'm covering all bases.
Those are the animal shelters located in Oshkosh. We'll have to look further for more.

www.jraar.org/pets
I knew there'd be no cats, but I'm still covering all bases.
Still nothing. Let's go even FARTHER away.

Lucky Dog Rescue
75 Elm Acres Dr, Fond Du Lac, WI 54935
luckydoggyrescue.org/pages/available-cats-1
I'm glad I searched EVERY animal rescue. I would assume this place would have only dogs, but they do have a few cats. There is a grey cat with white markings, but it's a 2-year old male with a black marking on its nose and the white markings are totally not Rarity's.
Fond du Lac Humane Society
652 Triangle Rd, Fond Du Lac, WI 54935
www.fdlhumane.org/pet_types/cat/
They have some grey cats (both male) and no white markings. No sign of Rarity.
Rescue Me Now
1270 Oneida St, Menasha, WI 54952
www.rescuemeinc.org/
I've looked all over this site and can't find Rarity.
At this point, Rarity would have had to trek quite a distance, yet I still keep looking...
Saving Snouts
N255 Debruin Rd, Kaukauna, Wi 54130
savingsnouts.org
These are all pigs. Literal pigs.
RoseBerry Bird Rescue
609 Jackson St, Little Chute, WI 54140
www.roseberrybirdrescue.org/
These are all birds. Again, covering all bases just in case.
Unforgettable Underdogs Dog Rescue
www.unforgettableunderdogs.org/
All dogs.
911 Dog Rescue Inc
W3239 Schmidt Rd, Brillion, Wi 54110
dog.rescueme.org/Wisconsin
All dogs.
Other shelters without websites:
De Pere Wi Lions Club in De Pere, WI
Amvets in Neenah, WI
At this point, I'm getting frustrated. But what if Rarity swam 10+ miles across Lake Winnebago???
Eastshore Humane Association
1100 Park St, Chilton, WI 53014
www.eastshoreha.org/pets-available
The closest is a pure grey kitten that's "available soon" for adoption and a grey male cat that's about to be adopted. No cat that looks like Rarity.
I'm not ready to give up now. I noticed one of the animal shelters used petfinder.com to list their animals. Let's look through every cat found who is an adult female grey & white cat in the entire state of Wisconsin. I also checked the seniors to cover all bases.
petfinder.com/search/cats-for-adoption/us/wisconsin/?age%5B0%5D=Adult&age%5B1%5D=Senior&color%5B0%5D=Gray+%26+White&gender%5B0%5D=female&include_transportable=0&sort%5B0%5D=recently_added
Nothing.
Okay, let's look through every adult female grey & white female cat in the entire country. Luckily, Rarity has very distinctive markings on her muzzle, chest, and paws.

I got jumpscared with...
The closest I could find was a cat that kinda/sorta looked like Rarity, though its markings were slightly off, but I wasn't going to completely rule it off in the off-chance Rarity's markings shifted for some mysterious reason. I completely ruled it out when I saw the cat was located in Alabama.
I'm done.
