I returned home on Friday from delivering a grumpy abandoned cat to a new foster to find a message from a vet at the Toronto Humane Society saying a cat with a microchip registered to me had been hit by a car and brought in. I immediately called back, wondering who could it be? It was Jenko, a black and white female. I TNR hundreds of cats so that name meant nothing to me, but when they told me the address I knew which one she was, a nearby colony.
She had a badly broken leg, but she was friendly and headbutting the staff. I contacted the feeders at the colony and they knew her of course, she is one of the tamer ones they have been wanting to rescue. I have to thank the THS, they said they would amputate her leg at no cost, and then return her to me after recovery. We will put her in a foster home and find her a loving home once she is healed.
We had a three legged cat and he got around just fine.
Betty had a bad morning on Friday but we adjusted her pain meds and now she's eating well again and running around playing.
Best of luck to Jenco.
