Mo's story
Mo was advertised about 3 weeks ago as needing a new home due to the lady working away, and son having an allergy so unable to deal with feeding mo although the neighbour was soposed to be feeding mo.
I made enquirys about mo,s health, age temperment etc and the lady said mo had allways been in good health but took her to vets to get all clear. the vet apparently said mo had a mouth infection (she does have ulcers) and gave her antibiotics for a fortnight so I kept in touch etc asing about Mo and the lady sent two pics of mo where she looked fine. all seemed in order and i was going to go and meet Mo and if all was well bring her home, well the fortnights treatment ended yesterday for mo so i talked to lady and said I would come across (quite a distance for me as other end of city), i dont drive and have flu so not in a good state so when she offered to bring Mo to meet me i was quite gratefull as didnt really fancy the journey but hadnt wanting to mess lady about as knew she had wanted to get Mo rehomed and after seeing mos pic and hearing about her i felt a bit smitten
anyhows the lady came with mo in a basket and this adorable white furball crept out and then the reality of how skinny she was beame apparent.
the woman said mos not a big eater, (It appears Mo has been starved
anyhow i was totally at a loss for words, I have never seen a cat so thin, beneath the fur you see is sheer rib and bone, even the tail is little nubbles of bone, i was totally overwhelmed by the situation.
I now some may have battered the woman and reported her straight away but all that was going through my head was...say goodbye , get help quick for mo! i didnt want the opertunity of Mo having to go through more being a possibility.
anyhows Mo has been to vets today, she weighs 1.2kg.......
the vet said if i hadnt have got Mo then she would not have survived much longer at all where she was and it was really more in the scope of RSPCA as this was cat cruelty without doubt. she has mucus from her mouth due to ulceration , also her ears are really bad but shes so thin he can only give antibiotics and special food at the moment , its possible she has renal? disease but he said the fact she was still alert and ate some of the special food gave him hope.
in character shes an angel though, Its heartbreaking this has happened as shes so loving and follows you about , someone must have fussed her before....
