Nerissa
OVERVIEW
NICKNAMES: Tortie Three
DATE OF BIRTH: Unknown
GOTCHA DATE: April 4, 2017
In 2017 a homeowner/friend came to me and said that someone in her neighborhood had intentionally injured 5 out of 6 cats in her feral colony in less than a week. We immediately went to work and were able get all six of them trapped. At that point your generosity allowed us to pursue diagnostics and treatment on each cat as needed. All 5 injured cats had been shot at close range with an air rifle. One girl was paralyzed and had to be euthanized. The others have been treated and with your continued help, they are safe with us now.
This beautiful girl was shot SIX times. Her left shoulder was destroyed and she suffered a large amount of soft tissue damage. Her leg had to be amputated. Nerissa is now a permanent resident of the tripod enclosure - also dubbed Platform 9-3/4 (9 lives and 3/4 legs hee hee). Your sponsorship of any of these babies goes to care for Nerissa and cats like her. Thank you for all you do to make this possible!
