“When we discovered Luna, my heart was torn apart…”
When she gave birth to her litter of six puppies and was attempting to get food, someone poisoned her by placing poisoned food underneath a car. The unfortunate female became trapped and consumed the poisoned food.
A little child discovered Luna in a terrible predicament. After waiting until the elderly man who had left the food had departed, he phoned the Prishtina Dog Shelter.
As soon as they get there, Luna begins to breathe excessively but still lifts her head in a desperate plea to save her little children. Her life was saved by an emergency injection from the volunteer’s vet.
She was taken into the Prishtina Dog Shelter, where she was reunited with her puppies…
He was quite frail and in need of rest, but she was OK. The next day, Luna was finally prepared to get her first vaccinations, which are essential for both her and her unborn children’s health. Although she was a little nervous, Luna performed well despite her fear.
Luna’s puppies are still too small and haven’t matured enough for adoption, but the morning after the veterinarian checked her, everything was well. When she first saw them, Luna was ecstatic.
She was really friendly, so she was definitely not a stray dog that had been left there.
Nikita and Luna, two orphans who were abandoned and found a day before Luna was, follow Luna, who allows them to nurse even though they are not her children. Isn’t she a sweet mother?
An Early Second Chance
On my way to work as a vet technician a few weeks ago, I saw what looked like a sock or shirt laying in the road. I didn’t think much of it.
About 15 minutes later a woman came in holding a box and said she found a kitten on the road, and she thinks it is still alive. My heart sank knowing I drove right past this sweet girl without thinking twice. I took her into the exam room and the doctor decided she may have a broken jaw and some head trauma. We administered a steroid injection, subcutaneous fluids, pain medication, and started her on antibiotics.
The first two days were not great for her. She was in some pain and could not hold her head upright. On day 3, she was starting to improve, she was less stuffy, her head was upright, and she was eating well from a syringe.
I decided to take her home and continue her care there, and bring her to work with me every day. Since then this little girl has blossomed into quite the firecracker! She is still syringe feeding, as she is only about 4 weeks old, maybe 5, and she loves to chase my feet when I walk!
If it weren’t for the woman finding her, this little girl wouldn’t have stood a chance out there along the road. My husband decided to name her Nook, and she is settling in quite well at home with our three other cats.
