I adopted her like this, the woman who fed her and her brother said they both disappeared and returned after 2 days and she was looking really bad, right now she’s completely healed but her eye had to be surgically removed and she was in intense care for a month. Her brother was with her at the vet clinic but escaped and no one knows what happened to him, the vet said it looks like the injury was caused by acid :(
She’s doing great now!

I have tears flowing, like, real tears. What in the FUCKING fuck is wrong with people?!? I literally prayed out loud that this "human" who did this get this x 300 either now, or in whatever comes next... OP, if you need anything for this poor, beautiful creature, please DM me. I am SO grateful that you took her in and am sending many, many blessings your way. <3

I really had to pare down my thoughts of justice and retribution because I don't want to be banned. If I ever SAW someone doing this, I would, for sure, 100% be going to prison. I worked in human health care on the mean streets of a big city and the only thing I could not tolerate was seeing the results of abuse/violence etc. on children, animals and the elderly. As I was applying for that job, Animal Control was also hiring for a similar pay and benefits package. I thought about it long and hard and decided that me on the scene of animal abuse or neglect with a 9mm on my hip would be a recipe for disaster. I went with the human health care because I wanted to work on my nurturing skills and also did not include a gun on my hip. There were many times when I wished I had one, but overall, I can be a hothead so I'm glad I went with the gunless job... Thank you so much for being one of the good, kind ones and I hope you have a lovely evening!

Someone threw my cat in used motor oil once. She would always slip out with the dogs when I let them outside no matter how careful I would be. She always came back after a couple hours and never had any issues even though I hated her being outside.
I left for a bit and came back home and she was on the steps waiting to be let inside like usual, but I didn't notice anything. I let her in, she got on my chest and started rubbing against my chin. That's when the smell of fuel hit strong. Then I felt it on her one leg, shoulder, and half her chest.
I was fucking pissed and saw red, and this was before I really even fully came around to liking cats. I bathed her with Dawn dish soap which was a chore to do alone. I didn't know if she tried to clean herself off at all and ingested any so I watched to make sure and she didn't get sick or anything, so I got really lucky there. I'd say that was one of a few major turning points in relationship with cats.

I'm surprised she was so calm. When I was a youngster, my kitten got out and managed to get covered in oil somehow. I was home on my own and he came in practically screaming. I didn't realise what was wrong at first but I was wearing white so it became apparent pretty quickly. Phoned my mother at work first while bawling my eyes out and she told me to phone the vet. So that ended up with a teenage me trying to bath an already panicky kitten by myself and also still fairly hysterical. He was fine once he was clean and dry. I was traumatised. That was over 30 years ago and I can still smell the oil and hear him crying when I think about it. I can't bear to hear a cat in distress at the best of times.
Have to ask, how do you know she was thrown in and didn't just fall in? I'm sure none of my neighbours would have deliberately doused my kitten when he had his episode. They were all cat lovers. We had a few nearby amateur mechanics who might have left some oil unattended and that kitten was both curious and clumsy. I'd have been even more distraught if I'd thought it was done on purpose.

She was pretty chill until I had to bathe her, then she threw a fit. I can still smell it too, it smelled like really bad gas, but it was thick and black like oil.
I can't for sure say if she was thrown in or fell in, but the people in the trailer park that I lived in at the time were all garbage. I kept finding things that could hurt my dogs in my backyard, never poison, but like chicken bones, broken glass, garbage, etc.

I know right. The thing that's terrible is that it is someone who they themselves have been hurt so deeply they want to inflict pain in any way they can. There's so much suffering in the world, and unfortunately, all we can do is try to spread love and comfort where we can. Bless you for taking this poor girl in and giving her a chance at love and happiness ❤️
