In reply to the discussion: 7 stray and abused animals turn into beloved pets: Before and after pics [View all]Emit

The first dog is Tad and here's his story:
Tad's path crossed with mine on March 26, 2011. He was basically hairless, bloodied, and severely starved. He was infested with internal parasites, and two different types of mange, which is very, very rare. He also had deep wounds on his front legs and neck, which required four weeks of antibiotics to help deal with the massive infection. We are still trying to overcome the severe ear infections. Tad is the true definition of a fighter, one who never gives up.

OP
Thanks for posting this, it can never be said enough. There are way too many animals in shelters

That's a great story about the no-tail kitty. A lot of the time, cats who have been bottle fed

Cats are truly fascinating. I could not imagine ours having kittens in the house.
