Smashie was abandoned in the street in North Philly, unable to move her back legs. A concerned passerby asked for help. When City Kitties got to the scene yesterday afternoon, she had been there for days, somehow surviving on a nearby plate of kibble. Smashie had been out in the rain and the heat, exposed to dogs, kids, and other dangers. At some point she crawled behind a tall rusty fence for protection. She lay there on the concrete, so exhausted and dehydrated she could barely move. Who knows how many people walked by her and didn't bother to call animal control or the police for help. Thanks to a kind auto store employee with a tall ladder, I was able to climb over the fence to get her. Smashie must have been in horrible pain, but as I lifted her into the carrier, she purred. In the car on the way to the vet, Smashie purred some more and kneaded her blanket. She rubbed her face against the side of the carrier, so happy to be in a safe, comfortable place. Less than an hour after arriving at the vet, she was in a deep, exhausted sleep, curled up in a happy ball in her cage. We still don't know exactly what's wrong with Smashie. She was probably hit by a car (thus the unfortunately descriptive name), and we're hoping x-rays will confirm a break in her right hind leg so treatment will be as straightforward as possible. At least she has a chance at a better life.
