RSPCA fundraised for vital operation.
The RSPCA, along with a talented veterinary team, have saved the life of a kitten who fell from a moving car.
Named Fifi, the five-month-old kitten was rushed to the vets after being found by a member of the public with burnt fur, severe injuries and covered in oil.
Having thought to have been trapped inside the engine of a car, before falling out whilst the car was moving, the veterinary team stabilised Fifi, and discovered that her pelvis was completely shattered on one side, and fractured on the other.
Following the initial treatment, the veterinary team placed Fifi into the care of the RSPCA, who fundraised to provide Fifi with the surgery she needed to recover from her severe injuries, raising almost £1,700 for the kitten.
Claire Wood, from the RSPCA's Worcester and Mid-Worcestershire branch, commented: “We were absolutely overjoyed to raise the amount we needed for Fifi’s operation in such a short space of time.
“We appreciate that it’s a tough time for a lot of people right now, so to receive the support we did made us all feel very emotional.
“Fifi is the happiest and friendliest little cat - all she wants to do is roll around and play like the kitten she is - and we’ve every reason to believe that she’ll make a full recovery from the terrible injuries she sustained.”
A successful operation was carried out to place a small screw into the fractured side of Fifi's pelvis, and she is continuing her recovery at the veterinary surgery.
Following this, she will live at the RSPCA's rescue and rehoming centre The Holdings, where she will fully recover before being found a new home.
“We’d like to say a huge thank you to the wonderful lady who picked her up, to the amazing veterinary staff who have been caring for her, and to everyone who has taken Fifi to their hearts,” Claire added.
“Every penny raised from the appeal will go towards giving this gorgeous little girl a much brighter future.”
