Gimpy & Pumpkin

Uploaded: May 08, 2008

Description

Here is an updated on Gimpy, as you can see she had to have part of her right front leg amputated. She is coping very well & has grown as big as a pumpkin!!! Just thought you'd like to see how she is going.

Sweet pic of your kitty Chris ~ I don't know the history behind her leg but glad she's doing well now!

.. thanks for the comments on my seascapes ~ I learned something new after 'googling' the word 'drongo' ~ never knew it was australian either! #5932229

Thanks Gene & Suzie, we don't really know what happened to her leg either, only that she was mistreated & thrown out!! She's very happy now. #5948356

Awe, Chris this still brings tears that she was mistreated. I am glad she is doing well and adapting. I am so glad she found a good home. #10133527

Amanda, I'm sorry to have to tell you poor little Gimpy is no longer with us. New neighbours moved into where she lived with her new family & their dog attacked her & she passed away. We can only keep thinking she at least had a few really good years, where she was loved & really wanted. Thanks so much for caring about her=^..^= #10134527
