Love Needed

Minnie is was a ” throw away” cat. She was declawed by her former owners, and then at some point discarded like trash and left on the streets. We saved her from the jaws of two loose dogs, and took her in less than a year ago. She survived the attack and healed.
Our other cats pick on Minnie, so she needs to spend her nights in our enclosed patio, where they can’t get to her. ( We live in South Florida )
One night a few weeks ago something, or someone, got her from the patio. The next day she was found in my neighbor’s bushes with a broken leg.

She is recovering with the help and love of many friends all over the world. Thank you Minnie’s Angels! Now Minnie is a Keeper!!! XXXX

    There is the very sweet and famous Minnie. She looks so comfortable here and I love to hear every bit of good news about her. Her recovery so far has been nothing short of remarkable! I like this image with the sepeia tone.

    Thank you my dear friend! xxx

    I would love you to change that lead-in to “Minnie is a keeper.” Being a throw away is not her legacy, but to be found and loved by you and your family certainly is. Her life with her thoughtless previous owners is only a part of her history, but you, dear Leena, along with your family are her future. You change her life from being a throw away into being a cat who is loved, cherished and protected… “a keeper” Blessings to you!

  • Leena Hedman replied

    Thank you dear Marjie, that is such a sweet idea, Minnie truly is a keeper!!!!! xxxxx

    I agree with Marjorie!! What a wonderful thing to save an animal. It is so hard to see animals abused. Cats touch my heart and Minnie is a sweetheart. Glad she found someone to love her.

  • Leena Hedman replied

    Thank you kindly Elizabeth! xx

    She is indeed lucky to have you & I am sure is glad to be a “throw away cat” no longer. It is so sad what some people seem able to do to animals, but thankfully Minnie ended up in the right hands.

    What an awful story, & what a dreadful life this poor little cat has had, she is so lucky you found her.

    Bless her she’s happy now.

  • Leena Hedman replied

    Thank you for your compassion. Minnie is well taken care of now, she stays indoors and when I can’t keep an eye on her, she sleeps in her little bed in the laundry room where my other pets can’t get to her. She purrs all the time and chirps to us in a very funny way. =)

    Oh Leena…I am so glad she is healing and you have taken such good care of her…It makes my heart so heavy even more so because I lost one of my babies, a cocker , last night….he just got sick two days ago and is gone now…I don’t understand how anyone can not love these devoted friends!!

  • Leena Hedman replied

    So very sorry to hear the bad news Dear Dottie! It is awfully sad when they go, they truly take a piece of your heart with them.
    You must be still in a shock. I’ll keep you in my thoughts and wish you strength and peace while you mourn. xxxxxx
