Pumkin
was a very special foster to the Montgomery family. This tiny
yorkie cross had been tied out and basically ignored, she
was full of mats and terrified until she was rescued by Gail
of Feral Cat Consortium in Louisiana. She tested heartworm
positive and while getting preliminary tests and xrays, it
was discovered she had a leg that was broken and then set
with pins that were so large that they dug into her muscle
and skin, her liver was disfunctional and she was producing
large amounts of bile. The decision was made after consultations
with our vets that it was all too much for this little girl,
she would be lucky to survive her heartworm treatment- her
chest xrays showed they had infested her tiny organs as well
as her heart. Pumkin passed being held by her loving foster
Mom.
