8/15/23 – She appeared to have a broken leg which was later confirmed when her rescuer took her to a local veterinary clinic. Penelope’s leg was x-rayed and the doctor diagnosed a broken femur and advised her rescuer that the surgery would cost $2,500. Because the rescuer could not afford the surgery, Penelope was given an injection for pain and her leg was wrapped; that is when we were contacted. We authorized Penelope to be seen by one of our amazing veterinary partners, Dr. Lynch, at Patterson Veterinary Hospital. Dr. Lynch confirmed the diagnosis and Penelope had her surgery.
Penelope’s rescuer reported yesterday that Penelope is doing great and her follow up appointments have confirmed the leg is healing properly.
Two lives (one human and one feline) changed because of the generosity of our donors. Thank YOU – diana
