Help RSPCA find Parsley a home
UNDERWEIGHT, dirty, tail stripped of flesh right down to the bone leaving her unable to walk – Parsley the cat has had a despicable start in life.
But now, the young feline, found lying injured in a garden, is in the safe hands of staff at RSPCA Southridge Animal Centre in South Mimms.
After hospital treatment, Parsley is now well enough to be rehomed to a new loving family.
A spokeswoman for the Packhorse Lane centre told the Welwyn Hatfield Times: “What we saw [when Parsley was first taken to the animal centre] made us feel sick.
“Parsley was underweight and filthy, her once snow white coat was covered in flea dirt and bald patches.
You may also want to watch:
“Her feet were hugely swollen and inflamed with large pieces of skin and scabs sloughing away from them.
“We rushed her down to the vet, where she was hospitalised and treated.”
