A Dying Cat Covered In Flies, Makes A Faint Cry For Help As Someone Passed By

A young woman found a severely injured, maggot-infested cat she first thought was dead, and decided to rescue it.

The cat couldn’t eat and had multiple leg fractures and liver damage. She took it to a hospital for emergency treatment and observation.

She named the cat Nineteen. Despite its weak condition, Nineteen slowly improved, eating on its own and responding well to care.

Nineteen had surgery, and its health kept improving in hospital. It ate better and the swelling in its paws went down.

After a month, Nineteen was discharged, much recovered, and now lives comfortably with the woman who rescued it.

Others have had similar experiences.

One commenter said “I found a cat in a similar condition. Our vet said “I’ll fix her for free, if you promise me to take good care of her for the rest of her life”. He tried orthopaedic surgery on her broken leg, but had to amputate it in the end due to infection. But she’s been my best friend for the last 6 years”
