Title: 14 year old Poppy left at PDSA after pelvic fracture - can anyone help? PORTSMOUTH AREA **SORTED**
Post by: LesleyW on June 21, 2011, 12:32:18 PM

Just had a call from my local PDSA again.


They have had Poppy for about two weeks.  She was taken in with fractured pelvis and I think maybe a fractured femur, which they have attended to and she now needs six weeks strict cage rest and is a bit hobbly on her hind leg so will probably need to be an indoor cat.


Anyway, her owner has now decided they don't want her back and just handed a letter in to the PDSA to that effect, so the PDSA are desperately trying to find somewhere for her.


I have nowhere at the moment to set a cage up - all  my rooms are in use - so is there anyone that could take this baby in?


Long shot I know  :crossed:

Fingers crossed for the poor baby, how callous of her owners  :(

Got a call from the PDSA to say they have found someone to foster her and the fosterer has said she will probably become a "failed" fosterer and keep her.


Just as well, we're going to Nickynoo's new house tomorrow, which is very near the PDSA hospital, and if she had still been there we would probably have picked her up rather than let anything "nasty" happen to her.


Thanks for your kind offer Ron, hope your new three legged girl is okay. :Luv2:
