Doreen

An unusual case - not for the faint hearted!

On Tuesday afternoon we had a cat brought into the centre. Looking at the cat from the front you wouldn't have thought anything was wrong. Boy did we have a shock when we turned the poor thing round to check what sex the cat was.

We warn you this one is not for the faint hearted! At first we thought that the cat might have been giving birth. Then once we figured out she definitely wasn't giving birth we thought it could be a rectal prolapse.

Mel and Jo took the cat to the vets straight away. After examination by the vet we were told that the cat had a prolapsed rectum. The vets stitched her back together again - ouch! We have named her Doreen and she is doing very well after her ordeal.

Doreen is having medication and lots of TLC. Soon she will go up for re-homing once she is fully recovered. We will keep you updated on her progress.
