IN MEMORIUM 2012-2013

  

 

We rescued Betsy, a one year old female ruddy from a shelter.  As she was being relinquished to the shelter, she started giving birth, but unfortunately, the kittens did not survive.  When we picked her up from the shelter on 4/26/13, she was very ill and was immediately taken to the vet.  She had a serious infection, was dehydrated and very weak and we were not sure she would survive the night.  The vet was able to stabilize her and performed the surgery she so desperately needed.  She did survive the surgery and actually started to perk up. Unfortunately she got an upper respiratory infection and then pneumonia.  She wanted to stay with us, but her little body could not fight any longer.

This is the first time we have had a situation like this.  It is  not like us to ask for donations, but the vet costs for Betsy were very high.  We would be very grateful for any donations to help replenish our funds used to pay for Betsy’s vet costs so we can continue helping all the other abys and somalis in need.  Rest in peace, our little Betsy.
