A woman was dropping her child off at school when she made a startling discovery.
Nobody knows how the one-year-old cat, Artex, came to lose his eye, but the poor creature was writhing in pain when rescuers first found him
The charity rushed Artex to the vet, where the poor cat was given medication, antibiotics, and other emergency care. When the cat’s condition stabilized, the furry patient – who clearly hadn’t been treated well in his old home — was also treated for fleas and worms.
Artex is understandably terrified after this ordeal, which is all the more heartbreaking because he was likely injured and abandoned by someone he loved and trusted. Now wary of all humans, the young cat doesn’t understand that these rescuers, including his current foster parent, are trying to help him recover from this trauma.
“We don’t know how Artex lost his eye or came to be abandoned, but Cats Protection will now make sure that he is well cared for, receives the medical treatment he needs and is given every chance for a full recovery,
