Well this little scrap is Noah, found on an estate (one we're very familiar with), the R**** 'couldn't help' and so we were called in.... we're collecting evidence for a case as we think there are other cats in the area suffering, but it's so hard to prove...
This is Noah when he first came in... there is some white fur under there somewhere!
(http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a140/jenniferphoenix/Noahatworst.jpg)
Cleaned up a bit...
(http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a140/jenniferphoenix/Noah.jpg)
His burst paws... he'll always need an indoor home becuase of illness which causes his paw pads to burst - he's been out in the cold for God knows how long - can you imagine the pain he's been in?
(http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a140/jenniferphoenix/Noahspaws.jpg)
He's showing himself to be a little sweetie who we thought would have to be PTS as we thought he was feral, but once he had some tuna and pilchards he was purring away!!!
-
Oh my god, that poor little baby. What a brave little man. WELL DONE for giving him another chance
-
That poor, poor little cat :'( He looks so sad. Waht a fortunate thing for him that he has you to care for him. :hug: :hug: to him and to you. I fear he is going to be a cat who "haunts" me for a while ..... Can his paws be helped? Ive never seen or heard of anything like that before. :'( Please let us know how he gets on......
-
he made me cry :(. poor little boy
-
It's a very rare illness, but it is treatable (for the life of me the name escapes me!) We have had a cat with the same illness a little while ago but it wasn't nearly so advanced as Noah's case.
They will heal given time and lots of tlc and he'll always have to have a nice, softy carpetted home, but if he's like the other cat he should make a full recovery. His fur will hopefully go back to white given time. We're in it for the long haul with this one, but actually he'll probably be re-homed quite quickly as we get so many indoor homes and also people like me who's heartstrings get pulled x
-
That poor, poor baby, thank god he was found when he was, and he will now get all the love and treatment he needs. I do hope he isn't waiting too long for a home, and that he recovers quickly.
-
Oh my word, the poor little love :( I have heard of the paws problem but never seen it and the case I heard of did heal eventually. I'm sure he won't be waiting long for a home
-
Oh the poor poor sweetheart...i've just dried my floods of tears, to think what he has had to bear.... :'( :'(
Just asked Z (whos scowling at my crying from his seat next to me)if he wants a 4th member of the casa koscha rabble, Noah is adorable. :Luv:
-
Its strange, when I was fostering I managed not to get too atached to any of my little "guests". That was 20 years ago .... Now I seem to be much less detached. And Im only seeing pictures and reading the cats stories.....
We have our two rescued "oldies" Chloe and Mr T and I suppose if desperate we could take in more but Im sure Chloe and Mr T would prefer us not to. They dont seem very keen on the one or two visitors we have had.
I do wish Noah all the love he deserves and hope his forever-home isnt too long in coming :) :Luv2:
-
JUst spoken to someone who's dealt with Noah - It's actually a virus that causes this problem and someone on the estate has been trying to catch his, but he was in so much pain and terrified. The R**** had been called 3 times and hadn't done anything (and would have PTS anyway).
He had to be bathed under anasthetic but as soon as we put him into a pen with a warm bed and food he just could not stop purring and hasn't stopped since! He'll be in the vets for another 2 weeks whilst we get the steroids started and he may have to have an operation to remove some excess skin. They'll always be tender and may leave sopts of blood occasionally, but it's totally manageable.
His FeLV and FIV came back negative and so it looks like this is his only issue... we'll just wait and see!
-
Poor baby. It is so heartbreaking that cats can suffer like this and "people" don't seem to have a scrap of humanity in them to help :( - I'm sure he will be right in no time but my heart is breaking for what he and others like him have to suffer :'(
Is it this? - plasma cell pododermatitis? - http://www.marvistavet.com/html/body_plasma_cell_pododermatitis.html
On the bright side is they say cats are rarely in pain - although with raw wounds it must hurt? :'(
I hate the RSPCA - they are useless and collect money under false pretences that should be going to charities that actually help animals! >:(
-
So glad you guys got to this little one.
I'm sure you'll find a happy home for him in no time!
:hug:
-
Noah is a babe! (I called a cat Noah last year when I took him and his littermate; Jinx off a free site and temporarily cared for them.They both live a good life with my cousin now and are spoilt rotten!)
Please keep us updated - he looks a sweetie!
-
We have a feral called Rogue with this he has always limped and we had a biopsy done last year as we thought it was cancer as did our vets but it came back as plasmacytic pododermatitis
This is treatable with steroids, unusally Rogue currently only has this in one pad and it cleared its seld up - if comes back periodically always accompanied by a limp
Rogue is no where near as bad as Noah but the condition is treatable with steroids and creams. Rogus is still indoor/outdoor but whn he starts limping we ground him for a week
I'm sure now is good care Noah will come on in leaps and bounds he is a cutie for sure :hug:
-
I have never seen anything like that before :'(
poor little baby :'(
Thank goodness you have him now, it doesnt surprise me with the RSPCA...they are a waste of space sometimes !!
So with medication will his paws heal and not get like that again ?
-
Oh the poor baby :( :hug: His poor paws must hurt.
-
I am horrified at Noah's suffering and that the RSPCA allowed it to happem, I thought they were to relieve the suffering of animails not contirbute to it! :censored:
I am afraid that if that was me, it would be graphic pictures and a stern letter of complaint to the top bod, If no joy there, then the local press, The sooner the public wake up to the fact that the RSPCA are a waste of space the better.
I would love to hear thier excuses on this one! Grrr.
But at least he is safe now and knows some warmth and comfort.
-
Oh Noah :(
Words fail me :'(
Just so glad that he is safe with you now
-
OMG... that poor poor baby. So pleased to hear though that it is treatable and that he will be ok :Luv2: he will be such a lovely boy when he is well again.
Good luck with the treatment and give little NOah some extra :hug: from all of us here.
-
Oh my god, i have never seen anything like this before - poor poor, little boy- it looks incredibly painful.
I am so pleased you have him and he will be well looked after now till his forever home.
He looks such a love too :Luv2: :Luv2:.
I totally agree with this from dabs - pepole need to know more about the RSPCA - They are total :censored: :censored: :censored: with their policies -yet they are always sending out letters asking for donations - well, i rather give my donation to better cat charities that actually help !

Poor littel Noah! :Luv2: I'm glad he's going to be getting the treatment he needs for his poor little paws, what he must have been suffering. >:(
-
Poor little baby, he is safe now. :hug:
-
Yes well we're putting together an evidence file and writing to them and to our HQ as well to show them what we're really up against (sometimes we read the Cat magazine which CP supporters get and it paints a more happy picture than what we're actually facing).
I think the RSPCA's excuse was that Noah was so timid that they said to contact them when the lady had caught him. We went staight round with our experienced trapper and got him straight away... we origionally thought that we would have to PTS, but our wonderful vets knew deep down that he'd turn it around and they were right! We take all our trapping cases there and they really are amazing!
I'll keep you all updated on his progress!
-
Poor little sod :'( is there a collection for his vet care?
-
The R**** are shameful sometimes, so very lucky for this little one that you managed to get him instead. His paws look shockingly painful.
-
Poor little Noah, hope you get well fast :Luv2:
He looks lovely under all the mess, sending lots of love and big hugs :hug:
-
The poor poor baby ... I am so happy that you have caught him and he is getting, treatment, love and the chance of a forever home when he is better.
In a way I'm pleased the R**** didn't managed to catch him as we all know how they would have treated him ... they would have justified it by saying "it was the kindest thing to do for the cat!" He probably wouldn't have even made it to the vet just be "dealt with" in the back of their van >:(
God bless you and your team for helping this special little boy and I'm sending lots and lots of love and get well son vibes for Noah :hug:
:get well:
-
You mean to say he could actually walk with feet that bad? :Crazy: :'( Are they open wounds or overgrown callases?
The poor, poor mite. :( But I am sure they'll be a race to adopt him. :Luv:
Nothing surprises me about the RSPCA. They still haven't visited the suffering cat I reported 2 weeks ago. Somebody, somewhere in the media must surely pick up on all this failure of duty and expose them. :scared:
-
Oh that poor wee bairn.
he's gonna be gorgeous when his fur's sorted out too (he's lovely enough now).
As for the R****. :censored:
-
Poor little babe :'( :'( :'( Pleased he's now in a safe haven, :hug: :hug: xxxxxxxxx
-
Poor wee tyke :(
So glad He's in your caring hands
and in line for some proper T,L,C :Luv: :Luv:
-
:get well 3:
-
God those paws look horrific. Poor little soul must have been in agony. :( So hope he will make a good recovery and find a loving home to give him the care and attention he needs, bless him.
-
How's little Noah doing today ... hope he is comfortable :Luv2:
-
Hoping little Noahs poor feet are healing up now - he could do with some little cloth boots !
Lots of healing vibes for the poor little boy.
-
Just wanted to pop by and sending some healing cuddles to add to those for Noah. Hope he's doing well. :hug: :hug: :hug:
-
Poor little Noah. Sending healing vibes to him x
-
OMG his poor little hands :'( :'( :'(
loads of healing kiss' to this babe xxxxxx
I feel sick that anyone could let him get in to such a state - humans PAH.
Like I've before and say again we on Purrs are not humans we are loving Angels -
-
Poor Poor little Noah - it amazes me that these bautiful furbabies can suffer so much but still love and trust - I am sure they know who will love and care for them, I am so glad that he is in safe hands now. :Luv2:
Love and healing vibes for the gorgeous Noah - get better soon sweetheart xxx
-
OMG, poor baby :'(
Thank goodness Noah has found his way to you, with your love and care I'm sure you'll turn him around in no time, and allow him to find the comfy home he so deserves.
I'm glad the R**** didn't get him, I'm sure they would have taken the 'easy' option, which would have been heartbreaking :'(
-
OMG that's just horrendous. :'(
Well done to your branch and vets though for catching & treating him.
-
Any news???
Hows this baby doing today? :Luv2:
-
I think we're all feeling the same - can't stop thinking about him. Would love to see some more piccies of him when he's feeling a bit better.

Hello!
Apologies, but it's quite difficult to get more pics whilst he's at the vets as the vet nurses need to do it which takes time out of their day!
He's responding really well to treatment and is just enjoying good food and comfort. Of course, he can get grumpy with being pulled around and prodded, but he's generally a sweet boy who just wants to be loved!

any news on Noah? xxxx
-
Hoping no news is good news on this one .
-
how is little Noah?
-
Soo upsetting :'( poor babe. Thank god there are angels in this world like you hun that will help and love him unlike the :censored: RSPCA. How can they call themselves an animal caring association when they let babes like Noah be in pain? How can any "owner" of a pet let any pet suffer like that. :'(
Oh how i wish all this cruelty would end.
Sending all my love and prayers that he makes a full recovery and has a wonderful loving home he soo very deserves. :hug: :hug: :hug:
-
Popping by to top up the healing vibes for Noah. I suspect - I hope - that no news is simply 'cos he's still at the vets recuperating from his recent trials and tribulations, bless him. Sending cuddles for this lovely little chap. :hug: :hug: :hug: :wish:
-
My sentiments exactly, do hope hes feeling better and that hes on the road to recovery :Luv:

Hope we soon have news that he is recovering well xx
-
Topping up the get well wishes
-
Starting to worry now as not heard anything for 2 days :scared: - really hope little Noah is doing well.
-
Me too - concerned - and they're so (relatively) near us too.
-
I think he was expected to stay at the vets for a little while, so it might be difficult to get regular updates without disturbing the staff. Am hoping this is the case and that little Noah is thriving.
-
That is what I am thinking Sue, hope he is doing well :)
-
Sorry peeps, just been taking in a mum and 4, 2 week old kits and 2 un-neutered abandonded cats so been juggling spaces round!
I got this update from G who is our trapper and actually rescued Noah (there's a bit of a back story too)
He was a stray on an estate in Bramley, and had been around for a number of months. His health had deteriorated over time, as his condition developed. He was an un-neutered male, who had obviously been unloved for some time. Noah had developed a condition which made the pads on his front paws swell and explode, therefore exposing raw flesh and leaking with blood and infection. Noah must have been in severe pain, as he carried on his life as a stray, frightened by people and being chased from pillar to post. He had continued with attempts to groom himself and had covered his once white fur in blood and fluids. Noah finally settled in a ladys bin cuboard, and began to be fed regularly by the lady, who phoned us, after being unable to access help from an animal charity ( The RSPCA, but we had better not print that incase we get into trouble!) After catching him, he was seen by the vet, and he has turned out to be a friendly chap, and is receiving treatment and lots of TLC. Noah has now been neutered, and after an initial bath is looking much better!
I have seen Noah today, his fur is still yellow, and his pads are still swollen but the infection has dried up. He is such a loving, friendly chap, who loves his food, and lots of attention. Noah has a treatable condition, which with a kind owner should be maintained long term.
-
;D So pleased to hear he is doing well after being cruelly abandoned and turned away by others, hopefully this is the start of new and much deserved happy life for him :Luv:
-
I just can't imagine the pain this poor boy must have gone through. It sounds like he is well on the mend :Luv2: - I will never give the :bum: PCA another penny.
-
glad to hear that Noah is on the mend
-
Oh dear another sad case - poor Noah his little paws look so sore poor mite. God bless the kind lady who was feeding him. Hopefully he should make a full recovery - albeit as an indoor cat..... as for the RSPCA - well :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored:
-
It's wonderful to hear Noah is on the mend. He must feel so much better. I hope you can find a really special home for him when he's recovered.
-
Would be great if a nurse or similar would adopt him that will keep up with the treatment.
-
Extremely pleased to hear Noah's recovering well, from his poorly paws to his - erm, nether regions. :shy: Poor little soul. When I think about how frightening his life must have been, it breaks my heart. I bet he turns into a right cuddlebum. :)
-
I agree.
The ******* rspcs send out those leaflets with cute pictures (or horrific pictures), conveying the impression that they do al the can to help animals in trouble, and what do they actually do??? >:( They should be done for false advertising.
Very glad that he's on the mend, and enjoying the TLC. And very glad that nice lady found him and looked after him before calling you.
Mind you, how somebody could chase away any animal in that state, ratehr than trying to get help, is beyond comprehension. It just defies belief.
-
My thoughts on a certain organisation are unprintable, >:( how could anyone ignore the plight of a poor animal who was in so much distress and obvious pain just look the other way is beyound comprehension, :censored: thankfully he found his way to the lady who took pity on him and as they say the rest is history. Now hes safe and fingers crossed someone will come forward and give him the home he so deserves :Luv:
-
Hoping Noah's little sore pads are feeling better today :Luv2:
-
Aww, I am glad he is starting to get better, and fingers crossed for a good recovery and a fab new home.
-
So pleased he is responding well to the treatment bless him xxxxxx :Luv:
-
:hug: excellent news that little Noah is on the road to recovery :Luv2:
-
Aw bless him, I'm so pleased that his saw pawsies are improving, poor little guy :Luv:
-
I don't want to think about the pain this wee thing has been going through.
Sending lots of love and paw kisses.

He's still a bit yellow, but his tail is in the air and so obviously enjoying himself!
(http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a140/jenniferphoenix/Noaheating.jpg)
-
i am sure it will take a while for him to get his condioning back but hope he enjoyed his dinner and his paws are getting well :hug:
-
Ahhh bless him :Luv2: :Luv2: :Luv2:
-
He does look as if he's enjoying his fish supper :Luv: Hope those paws are feeling better too.
-
Hey - way to go, Noah! :wow: Once he's had a chance to pull himself round, he should gain weight and health in equal measure. Lovely to see him getting stuck into his supper. :)
-
He's great! Good for Noah, enjoying his food. :)
-
My goodness, he looks so much better! He really is a poppet. I could be sorely tempted..
-
Aww, bless him
-
Already had one offer of a home from someone who adopted from us 4 years ago ;)
The resident cat is very dominant though and so we need to do some investigating, but fingers crossed!!!!!
-
Awww, he's looking much happier, and clearly enjoying his supper which is fab, this baby deserves lots of home comforts :Luv2:
-
AWWWWWWWWW Bless him xxxxxxxxxxxx :Luv: :Luv: he looks so much happier - mega :hug: to Noah xx
-
:Luv: Awwww, bless him everything crossed for a lovely home for him he so deserves it xx
-
Can only echo what everyone else has just said - and he sure likes his fish ;) :hug: :hug:
-
Fingers crossed for a new home for Noah, and plenty of fish for his supper :Luv: :hug:
-
Oh what fabulous news about the offer of a home. Fingers crossed that it works out and if not I'm sure there will be plenty more offers for this special boy :hug:
-
Just dropping y to top up the healing and homing vibes for Noah. :hug: :hug: ;D
-
Yep, we need a Noah update! ;)
-
OMFG poor wee man, he actually looked dead in the first pic, to me >:(
Sending healing and get well vibes to Noah, get well soon little man :)
-
:um: :pic: Feel starved of piccies! :evillaugh:
-
awww bless little Noah... looks like he is doing really well. Will keep fingers crossed on the home front for him and I'm sure that once he is feeling much better his condition will improve.
-
:pic: ?
-
I agree I think Noah needs to have another photo shoot ;) Would love to see how his little paws on comming on :hug:
-
Well, maybe if no piccies, perhaps an update on this gorgeous little fella and his tootsies? So hope that he's doing well. :hug:
-
Hehe!
I'm sorry, no more pics yet (the vets need to do their work sometime!) but will endevour to get Georgina to get some more if she can (she's evry pursuasive!)
We're just waiting for Noah to finish the steroids and then he can be moved into a foster space. We're full at the moment and have some urgent cases coming in, but at least he's safe and well at the moment and will just wait until one comes up. It will of course have to be the right foster space for him, but we're willing to wait!
-
OMFG poor wee man, he actually looked dead in the first pic, to me >:(
I think He was sedated so they could sort his poorly pawz -
He is such a lovley lad - just want to scoop him up and snuggle him close - mind you I thikn we all do xx
-
Any news about Noah....?
-
Hey!
Noah is getting on good - he no longer has to kneel to eat his food and can support his own weight. His paws are healing and not oozing any more so we're just waiting for him to put on some more weight so he can have an operation to take off the excess skin. He'll be in the vets for another 2 weeks we reckon.
He does just eat and sleep at the moment and I don't think we've got a true sense of who this little one really is, but i'm sure his personality will come through once he's feeling better!
All good news - slow progress, but good news! I've asked for more pics but obviously it can be hard at the vets!
-
Glad this little man is still progressing well :Luv2:
-
great news! :)
-
So pleased for this little feller. Eating and sleeping is good medicine. ;) ;D
-
I'm pleased for him too. I hope his recovery is now swift and sure :hug:
-
so pleased this fella is on the mend - cant wait to see more photos of him - he truly is a lovely lad. Just so happy that his little hands are almost healed :Luv: xxxxx
-
Just wanted to pop by this morning and top up the cuddles for the lovely Noah. Hoping he's still continuing to progress well. :hug: :hug:

How's Noah doing?
-
Oo yes - a Noah update would be fab! ;D
-
Oo yes - a Noah update would be fab! ;D
It certainly would ;D
-
Sorry for the delay in updates!!!!!!!
We had a horrific rescue at the weekend - 5 adults, 7 kittens (one has died and the other is barely hanging on in there) all un-neutered, living in inches of poo and wee, flies, the lot...
They're currently at the vets and are OK, but a bit on the wild side!
OK, so Noah is doing really well and is ready for a foster space. We have a fosterer ready, but she's just lost her own cat so we want to take it slowly. He's put on LOTS of weight and still doesn't quite understand that food will now be regular and not sporadic scraps! Georgina has taken some pics but can't work out how to download them! Hopefully when he goes to his fosterer we can have new pics. He's described as a 'canny lad' at the vets and seems very bright at predicting when food is coming and he's learning to play!
He's finished his steroid injections and has now got enough weight to have his op (he may actually have had this by now) to remove the excess skin from his paws. He can now stand fully instead of using his knees to get around and they've stopped oozing!

Oh no , poor little newbies. :'( Very sad for the little one who didn't make it. :hug: :hug: "Come on" to the little one hanging on in there. :hug: :hug:
Lovely news about Noah though. So hope this little guy gets the care and love he so fiercely needs, as it sounds like he'll make someone a fantastic companion soon. Always a good sign when they get playful. ;D :yesss:
Shame about the piccies, but just glad to hear he's doing so well. :) :Luv2:

Noah will be moving to his foster space on Thursday and i've already booked in photo's from Sarah the fosterer!!!!!!
She's a lovely fosterer who will give him loads of love until his new home is found!
Will update you all at the end of the week xxx

I have just read back this thread and seen the before pics, just heart wrenching. It is amazing how poor Noah has come on, thanks to you and all your hard work . Looking forward to seeing pics of him in his foster home.
-
I'm glad little Noah is getting better - the poor baby has been through so much. All the bad stuff is behind him now and he can be pampered from now on :Luv2:

HAPPY RESCUE WEEK FOR NOAH!!! :Luv: :Luv: :Luv:
It was a year ago this week that Noah came to stay with us at Adel CP - it seems longer than that!
:hug: to Noah and Firefox !
-
I thought we could celebrate this very happy occasion by renaming the thread, so I have ;D
-
So pleased for Noah and cany wait to se the pics ;D
-
Has he been put in the Purrs successes? ;)
-
No because thats for cats homed and Noah isnt
-
I thought Firefox was his permanent home?
-
You are right Js,,,,,sigh,,,,,,,this is a rebirth of an old thread, so think he has.
I was thinking I thought Noah had a home but my memeory........................................... :-[
-
Yep, he's fallen on his paws with Firefox! I'd forgotten how bad he was when we first saw him.
-
So he is homed with FF! :wow: (I thought he was already though too lol!) :Luv2: :hug:
-
I need to thank Noah and his story for giving me a massive street cred boost last week. :)
I happened to be in a strange vet and needed to go to visit a cat in their surgery pens. As we walked through to the back, a pud was laying on an examination table having some treatment done. His little foops were just like Noah's. :( I said to the vet "Ooh! Plasmacell Pododermatitis... I haven't seen that for ages". Vet's jaw dropped and said "Are you sure you're not actually in the profession?" :shocked:
Naughty, aren't I? :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

So strange to read though this thread, it almost doesn't seem like the same cat as Noah is so happy and healthy. Must have been awful for him as a stray, as he is nervous of strangers and does love his home comforts. Still showing no inclination to escape the flat, think he just likes being a big fish in a small pond! :rofl: I did know it was a year ago he was rescued, and he has had new toys from Purrs shop to celebrate.
-
Am not surprised he doesn't want to go out Firefox. Probably worried he'd not be able to get back in to his fab new forever home - he's done that and been there. Those paws are staying firmly under your table, and in your flat. :Luv:
Big Fish is an apt tag for Noah. ;) :)

Oh my! As a newbie to this forum I had not seen this thread before and when I opened it and saw the first photo I thought the poor kitty in the photo was surely dead. I'm so glad that Noah has been saved and now has a safe happy home to live in. Way to go Noah! You're one very special little man. :Luv2:

The photos are absolutely shocking aren't they, I can only look through squinted eyes even now! As for Noah's new home, he really has landed on his paws (gently) but we are still waiting for pics (hint, hint :poke: :poke: :evillaugh:)
