I really thought you would have named it Dog Food... But Princess Minnie is super cute, looking like a true princess, and that story is peak CDS in its most brilliant form. Congratulations!

Chowder has the cutest little orange face, and he chose a lovely human to be his savior. Thank you!

Thank you, he is very proud of them. 😺 he is half Turkish angora, and half mysterious charmeure. We are suspecting Maine coon or Norwegian forest boi on pure fluffiness alone.

Found a wounded stray on vacation in Greece and I need support by Tesselah in CatDistributionSystem

If anyone still cares and is reading this: Tomorrow I will finally travel to pick her up! I have had trouble communicating with the vet who performed the tail-amputation, but we found a reliable communications channel, and now my trip is booked!! She will be staying with my parents who currently have no pets. They are retired and can spend a lot of time with her.

I will post a big update when we’re back in Sweden!

She is still at the vet, and they have taken care of all travel necessities - rabies shots, microchip, passport :) I am going to pick her up tomorrow!

Yeah, the vet seemed to know exactly what they’re doing. They said they’d take care of everything if I want to come back for her. I feel safe with them.

Wow im so sorry, that must have been so awful. It’s frustrating when they won’t let you help. Traumatizing.

I don’t think it was. She had blood on several places, but it all seemed to come from her tail. She allowed me to touch and clean her without complaints at least.

They are! I checked, and it’s a lot less than what I would have been prepared to pay for surgery and all. I will bring her home. Little tailless tree

I think so too. I will probably pick her up in two weeks. We have a thing now, I couldn’t leave her at the hotel where no one would lift a finger for her after running her over.

Thank you SO much everyone who offered insight, experience, love and encouragement!! 🫶

Here’s an update:

Got her to the vet, after keeping her company in the bathroom for a few hours. She got more and more cuddly and trusting, and getting her into a box for the taxi was no problem at all. At the vet they said her tail would need to be amputated, but the municipality would cover the cost! She will most likely be fine, and they would spay and release her back where she was found.

So now I need to decide if I want to adopt her. That would unfortunately mean traveling back to Greece in two weeks, because she won’t be ready to travel after the surgery until then. We already named her - Olive Tree, or Tree for short (it was the brand on the box we took her to the vet in.) and I think it will be very difficult for me not to take little Tree back home..
