They have had an outbreak of ringworm and 6 adoptable cats were euthanized today, as well as a stringent new cleaning program.
I don't know all of the names, but I am especially upset about Baby Stockings, who came in with an eye injury and eventually had surgery for inward-bent eyelashes. She was so sweet, so loving, but not pretty due to the bad eye. I saw the little spot by her right ear, and they said that was all she had. I would have brought her home and treated her. I'm just sick.
They have to be very aggressive, but the spread of ringworm can essentially put the shelter out of business for weeks.
I'm encouraged that Light, our little foster, is unaffected. Interestingly enough, I'm the only person who handles her on a regular basis. Do you see a pattern here?
