“We found a cat. He’s in the park, and we think he’s blind. We don’t know what to do; can you help us?”
We didn’t hesitate. We grabbed our rescue carrier and drove straight to the park, where we found Alfie huddled beneath a bench, shivering. His eyes were milky white, and he flinched at every sound, utterly disoriented. The people who called were standing nearby, watching him with tear-filled eyes. They’d left out a small bowl of water, but he hadn’t touched it. It was clear someone had abandoned this lonely, helpless creature with no hope of fending for himself.
Carefully and gently, we scooped him up. He didn’t fight; he was just a small, terrified ball of fur. We whispered soothing words, assuring him he was safe now. Back at our rescue, we gave him a quiet space in a warm room with soft blankets and fresh food. A vet checked him over and confirmed our fears: he was completely blind.
In the days that followed, Alfie slowly began to trust us. He learned the layout of his room by scent and touch, bumping into things at first, then moving with newfound confidence. His purr, which had been silent, started to rumble whenever we stroked his back. This brave soul taught us that a disability doesn’t define a creature’s spirit and that every life, no matter how fragile, is worth fighting for.
Our cats are provided to adopters in an appropriately sized means of transport. The adopter pays for this, and we pass on the purchase price. All adopters are responsible for paying for the transportation, flight, and any procedures that have not yet been completed.
The adopter must register the chip in their own name and update the data after adoption.
