Someone just gave her to me yesterday. She was covered in fleas and has a rash under her neck from a too large flea collar. She is very malnourished and scared of everything. Her little hip bones stick out and her ribs are very visible. So today after a good bath and getting rid of the collar and eating about 4 or 5 small meals a day, she is beginning to get a smile on her face. I am treating the place on her neck with hydocortisone cream until I can get her to the vet....which is tomorrow. Now Rexie is just not sure about all this but I think he will be a good friend in a few days.

Oh, what a sweetie! It is a shame that animals have to endure such abuse when all they want is to be loved and cared for! Thank you for taking her in and getting her the necessary medical attention she needs/deserves!!!

Kudos to you for saving the life of this lovely fur baby. Makes me angry when people don't care for animals appropriately. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for caring for her. What a cutie! Does she have a name yet? She looks like a Rosie.
