Sometimes, a cat comes along and completely changes the plan—and Bubbles is one of them!
When Bubbles first arrived, she was a fierce, spicy, and protective nursing mom who was thin and fighting hard to survive. Despite our best efforts and intervention, we sadly couldn't save her kittens, but her fight taught us a lot about her resilience.
Our original plan was Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) to open up much-needed space for daily incoming help requests. However, after her spay surgery, Bubbles developed a serious, unexpected complication: ☠️horrific☠️ diarrhea. We knew we had to treat her before returning her...
And that's when we saw the real Bubbles emerge!
Once she was safely indoors and receiving care and consistent food, this "mean" stray transformed into an absolute sweetheart. She's a total lap cat, she practically melts when you pick her up, and she begs for endless head scratches and attention. She lives for your time!
Out of an abundance of caution, we did full testing. She's negative for FIV and FeLV, but the veterinarian did detect a heart murmur - around a Grade 2 our of 5.
Knowing this, and seeing how much she thrives as an indoor companion, we simply cannot in good conscience put her back outside. Bubbles deserves a safe, quiet, and loving home.
