Carmen Weinberg, head of the Animal Friends Project, a private animal relief society, drove that day to a trailer park in West Palm Beach, Florida, where groups of street cats were often seen.
“I went there to bring medicine for one cat, and then I saw this gray cat on the side of the road. She was sitting completely still.”
The woman stopped near the cat, went outside with a jar of food and began to call the cat to her. The cat finally got up and began to approach Carmen (goodnewsanimal.ru).
It was a completely unsightly cat with a scowl and a huge swollen belly, and its muzzle and paws were covered with thick scabs due to mange.
At first, Carmen thought that the cat was pregnant, but then she saw a scar from sterilization. Thus, the huge belly was either a consequence of the disease, or the presence of a large number of parasites.
“When I saw the condition of this cat, I immediately decided to take her home with me. She was too sick and weak to live on the street.”
Carmen gave the cat the nickname Angel (Angel) and first advertised the found cat on Facebook (suddenly the cat was domestic), and then began to treat her.
Angel was covered in fleas and ticks, and there were balls of worms in her stomach. Carmen gave her medicine for worms. washed her, treated her for ear mites and fleas, fed her heartily.
The cat tolerated all procedures very well and was friendly and gentle even during bathing.
And then the rehabilitation period began, the cat slowly recovered, the scabies from scabies disappeared, the coat became smooth, and the eyes opened wider and wider. The huge belly disappeared shortly after taking the deworming pills.
A month later, the cat changed 180 degrees and turned out to be very gentle and affectionate.
After recovering, Angel got into a temporary foster family with volunteer Vera Brazo, and then she was placed in the cat section. available for adoption.
