Fiona Had Her Paw Amputated

Fiona arrived at the shelter about four years ago. She was one of 17 strays which had been living in a joint yard in my hometown where their caretaker was feeding them and taking care of them the best she could. 


That is until a cat hating neighbor hired two brutes to round up all of the cats, put them into bags, take them away and probably kill them. All 17 cats found their safe haven here at the shelter and have been living nice, quiet and safe lives ever since, Fiona among them. She wasn’t exactly people friendly, understandably, but she’s mellowed a little over the years. 


A week ago she started to behave strangely, she was somehow too quiet and it turned out she had seriously hurt her left hind leg. 


Nobody has any idea what had happened, but her paw was smashed and the vet had no other choice but to amputate, which was done a few days ago. 


The costs of surgery and postoperative treatment will be huge, around the 250 euro mark and with so many kitties to take care of, we simply can’t pay them off on our own. Please, help this gorgeous girl who’s already been through so much! Tripod cats can have full, quality lives and she will have that for sure, once she adjusts to walking on three legs. Whatever you are able to give really means a lot for her!
