On my way to work as a vet technician a few weeks ago, I saw what looked like a sock or shirt laying in the road. I didn’t think much of it.
About 15 minutes later a woman came in holding a box and said she found a kitten on the road, and she thinks it is still alive. My heart sank knowing I drove right past this sweet girl without thinking twice. I took her into the exam room and the doctor decided she may have a broken jaw and some head trauma. We administered a steroid injection, subcutaneous fluids, pain medication, and started her on antibiotics.
The first two days were not great for her. She was in some pain and could not hold her head upright. On day 3, she was starting to improve, she was less stuffy, her head was upright, and she was eating well from a syringe.
I decided to take her home and continue her care there, and bring her to work with me every day. Since then this little girl has blossomed into quite the firecracker! She is still syringe feeding, as she is only about 4 weeks old, maybe 5, and she loves to chase my feet when I walk!
If it weren’t for the woman finding her, this little girl wouldn’t have stood a chance out there along the road. My husband decided to name her Nook, and she is settling in quite well at home with our three other cats.
In a heartbreaking moment, a grieving dog shows unshakable devotion and sadness by refusing to part from his slain sibling.
Heartbreaking stories of animal brutality and neglect are regrettably all too frequent in our world. Recently, a video leaked online that showed a little puppy crying over the death of her siblings who were killed by stray dogs. The video is heart-wrenching and illustrates the truth of the horrible world we live in.
The video shows the little puppy clutching to her dead siblings and sisters and crying. The stray dogs had attacked and killed three puppies, leaving this little one all alone. Luckily, a good individual was able to rescue the puppy before any further damage could come to her.
It’s a heartbreaking story, but it underlines the need of animal welfare and protection. Animals, just like humans, need to be treated with love and respect. Unfortunately, there are still many stray dogs and other animals on the streets that are not being properly taken care of. This can lead to violent assaults and even death for innocent animals.
The video of the little puppy crying over her siblings is a poignant reminder of the terrible reality that many animals confront. It’s up to everyone of us to do our bit in assisting animals in need, whether that means adopting a pet, working at a local animal shelter, or simply promoting awareness about animal welfare concerns.
Let’s not forget the little puppy who survived this horrible catastrophe. She deserves a shot at a happy and healthy life, filled with love and care. And let’s do our best to make sure that instances like these don’t happen again in the future.
