Jinx (ACCT-A-241448) is an approximately 4-year-old female cat who came to us as a stray on 1/16 in very fragile condition, suffering from severe emaciation, hypothermia, and hypoglycemia. She was immediately transferred to an offsite hospital for intensive care and is now on the path to stabilization.
Jinx remains at the offsite hospital until tomorrow and will need a foster or rescue placement where she can continue her recovery in a safe, supportive environment and be given the opportunity to fully heal and thrive.
