Cat's nose was cut off in accident. But look at her
now!
Animal Aid Unlimited, India

Just two tiny holes were left for air to enter after a traumatic
face wound had cut off this cat's nose. In a state of shock,
however, she "surrendered" any resistance she might have
had to being caught and brought to the hospital. She simply
seemed to give us permission to try to save her life. But
saving her was not going to be easy. Her pain and her fear
were so intense that she refused to eat.
We treated her for pain, we cleaned and flushed her wounds,
and we removed maggots from another painful wound on her
paw. On day 1, she wouldn't eat. By Day 2, we were growing
anxious, but still, no food tempted her. By Day 3, she
anxious, but still, no food tempted her. By Day 3, she
continued to refuse food, and we were beginning to despair.
But she was still too active to be able to feed her through an
IV line (cats are difficult to feed intravenously unless they're
practically unconscious). But on Day 4, something changed!
And the rest of her sweet story isahead of her! Meet
Lovebug now!
