Princess Charming, as her fur-ever mommy affectionately named her, was given only six months to live due to a tough cancer diagnosis. But if you’ve ever doubted miracles, get ready for a heartwarming story that’ll change your mind.
One day, as she was scrolling through Instagram, Sath stumbled upon a post about a very sad cat living on the streets. Thankfully, some caring neighbors were looking out for the cat, feeding her and tending to her wounds as best they could.
When they found out about her severe leg injury, they joined forces to get her to the vet. The diagnosis was heartbreaking: Princess Charming had sarcoma, a very aggressive type of cancer.
Despite the grim prognosis, the neighbors pooled their resources to cover the cost of surgery to amputate her leg.
However, because she had an aggressive form of cancer, the vet warned them that the cancer would likely return within a few months and Princess didn’t have much time left.
The vet also emphasized that Princess Charming couldn’t go back to the streets, but anyone considering taking her in should understand that she wouldn’t live a long life in their home. As Sath, her fur-ever mommy, explained:
“Whoever was going to take her would need to understand that it would either be a foster adoption and that she didn’t have long left in her life.”
Hold back those tears, folks, because two years have flown by, and Princess Charming is thriving under Sath’s loving care!
When Sath saw the shelter’s post about Princess Charming, she knew she wanted to provide her with a loving home for whatever time she had left.
“That very moment I knew my purpose. I just wanted her to have like, an easy transition before she left Earth.”
At first, Sath admits she wasn’t sure how to care for a sick pet. But she was determined to make every day count.
“I knew that every single day I was just going to focus, give her love, and just make her have an experience of what it’s like to be a normal cat. So it was about basically getting the wins every single day.”
So, Sath started giving her snacks and encouraging her to walk and be more active. With each snack, Princess Charming grew more comfortable, gradually eating closer and closer to Sath.
Eventually, she even began eating her meals, became more relaxed, and started venturing out of her hiding spots to lie down near Sath. That’s when Sath knew she was earning her trust.
As the months passed, Sath realized they had surpassed the initial prognosis. But the moment of truth came with a vet visit for an x-ray to check for cancer recurrence.
“I really had to prepare myself.”
“When the vet showed the x-ray, it was like a miracle!”
Even the vet was astonished by the results; she exclaimed, “The cancer hadn’t returned – it was gone!”
Sath couldn’t believe her ears! She asked how such a thing was possible, but even the vet was stumped, calling it a medical mystery. Overwhelmed with gratitude and joy, Sath was filled with emotion.
“I knew. I knew that it was the love that healed her.”
For Sath, there was no doubt in her mind what had healed Princess Charming: love. Overwhelmed with gratitude and joy, Sath shared the incredible news with everyone she knew.
“Miracles do exist!”
Ultimately, Princess Charming’s story shows how love and resilience can make a difference. As Sath and Princess Charming enjoy each day together, they remind us that sometimes, miracles do happen.
