.....is now a happy and healthy girl with a bit of a gutBlush .

She now has fur where her bald patches were, all her sores have healed and regular flea treatment stops the terrible flea allergy she has.

She is utterly gorgeous and affectionate which considering the crappy start she had to life with our neighbour is amazing. We love her to bits.

She had been with them for three years and never allowed out. Then one day they just evicted her as they couldnt cope with the fleasAngry . She hid behind my shed for ages before I realised she was there.....needless to say that they didnt feed her

She has gone from wolfing fdown everything put in front of her to now sniffing the food quizzically and wandering off with a "get stuffed" attitude to it Grin . She will accept roast chicken though....entitled. ..much?

Lurks for photos. Sounds like a typical stray with the get stuffed attitude.

We had one like that. She used to flick furry v's at us from the dining room. Yes, she ate in the dining room.

Aw that's so lovely! How people can be so mean to animals I'll never know. My cat was a waif of a kitten when we first got her and it was lovely to see her grow when she was so close to death thanks to someone else's cruelty. It truely is a wonderful feeling to be a part of something so special. Can't wait to see pics :)
