Our streets are full of stray cats wandering around, having to fend for themselves. But without a shelter and enough food to survive, many of them face harsh destinies.
Such was the case of this poor feline, however, its luck turned around after crossing paths with a compassionate woman.
Walking down the street, a woman encountered a devastating scene – a sick stray cat, soaked and covered in leaves, lying helplessly on the road.
The poor animal crawled from the bushes in a desperate attempt to seek help. Clearly deprived of food, it was too weak to even stand up. Its dire condition was utterly heart-wrenching.
And yet, the kitty remained calm, showing trust in the woman’s care. Seeing the cat’s poor condition, the woman was determined to give a helping hand.
When she scooped it up and placed it in a box, the kitty looked at her with eyes brimming with hope. Who could abandon such a beautiful creature?
The cat was clearly sick, but to pinpoint the exact problem, the vets needed to carry out multiple examinations. Sadly, the results revealed several issues, including severe inflammation and maggots.
However, the most important thing was that the kitty was finally in the right place.
After who knows how long of being abandoned, teetering helplessly on the brink of life, help finally arrived for this cat.
Although challenging, luckily the condition was still treatable. It required a special procedure the kitty bravely underwent. After the successful surgery, the feline was discharged to start the healing process at home.
Still weak and in recovery, the cat wasn’t able to stand for too long, but with the huge appetite she was showing, the future looked promising.
Datou, as the kitty was named, soon showed a remarkable improvement. Finally able to walk, she began to explore the world around her slowly and cautiously. Her curious and playful personality began to emerge.
Once dirty and matted, her fur now looked much healthier. She was turning into a fluffy beauty with a refined sense of fashion. Just like any other girl her age, she loves to play with her mother’s makeup and jewelry, with pearls being her favorite choice.
Although generally cuddly and affectionate, Datou is not to be messed with. She knows how to stand up for herself and set clear boundaries. As her owner says in the video:
“(Datou) likes to lie in my arms, but sometimes seems to have a bit of temper.”
When not playing with her toys, Datou loves to chill with her furry best friend, meditating or plotting world domination.
One month post-rescue, Datou was unrecognizable. What was once a sick and poor stray cat has now blossomed into a stunning fluffy kitty with a cheeky personality. Her contagious energy brings joy to everyone around her.
She’s one adorable fluffball, embodying strength and unbreakable willpower. Datou serves as a purrfect example that strength often lies within softness.
