Last Sunday we took Emma in believing her to be a poor lost soul with an owner looking for her, she is skin and bone and her appetite was ravenous and so we expected her to have a thyroid problem, she is also blind so high blood pressure was expected. On Monday morning we took her to the vets who suspected the same and so she had bloods taken, blood pressure monitored and some Xrays taken because of a breathing problem and a problem with her paw.
We were amazed at the results blood tests showed nothing of concern. Blood pressure sky high but the xrays showed numerous old broken leg bones and a diaphragmatic hernia, the result of being in an RTA and being left untreated;Emma makes the most unbearable noise when she is eating probably an old broken jaw. Emma isnt someones recently lost pet the army of fleas should have been a clue; she is totally blind and her hearing isnt that wonderful either; her lungs are damaged, she has lost a third of her lung capacity due to the damage caused by that RTA and somehow she has managed to survive,she has the sweetest nature and deserves so much better.
Emma is well into double figures but you know I think her life is just beginning
