***SAFE 10/10/15*** VULNERABLE KITTEN! For such a little girl,SANDY has been through much! She has a left leg femur fracture and bronchitis on top of it! Though,the bronchitis can be easily remedied with antibiotics… The leg will need more vet care! The 9 month old has been working on the assessor’s with her friendliness and ability to want to seek attention. So she’s been given a terrific AVERAGE rating despite how uncomfortable she may be feeling! Offer to FOSTER or ADOPT her! If you FOSTER, the vetting will be free to you and if you want to ADOPT, be prepared to go the distance with SANDY’S medical needs!
