The new mom & dad stopped in tonight with better news that I ever thought to hear!

Bea is up, walking, using the LB, playing!!!

They were shocked, so was I! They're keeping her confined, no place she can jump, etc. They'll make sure she takes recovery slowly!!

That is great news. I really hope she's able to live an active and happy life at her new home. You did a great thing here, Nat.

Aww, I am so glad to hear there is a happy outcome to this, she is such a lovely girl, and you definitely did the right thing, it was the only option you had for her.

Amazing!! What great news for Bea! I hope she continues to improve, and that for the remainder of her life, she is treated like a queen.

That's wonderful news.
Bless you for giving her that second chance and thank God for people like her new Mom and Dad for giving her a loving home.

I'd really really like to thank those who donated to make this surgery happen, too.

Realistically, money would have slowed us down. It wasn't much, but what it would have cost fur her surgery would've taken care of the initial vet work we do ourselves on 3 cats! She might not have gotten it done without donations being made!

Today has been 2 weeks since Bea's surgery.

She was dumped back at the shelter last night.


They started her on clumping litter already....her paws very obviously hurt her still (she snipped at me multiple times if I bumped them).

Please NEVER EVER declaw. Because this can always happen. And there Bea sits in a cage.....in pain. All for someone's furniture.

Yeah, I thought so too. She was having "litterbox issues". They switched to clumping clay litter too soon, & I think the litterbox was too small for her (she'd be in the litterbox, but it would end up on the floor).

That's terrible! They surely knew all of the potential problems when they agreed to take her. That boils my blood! I wish I could take the poor baby
