AN ANIMAL WELFARE SHELTER IS LOOKING FOR A LOVING HOME FOR A PERSIAN CAT FOUND ABANDONED IN A WHEELIE BIN.
Dumped in a wheelie bin, outside of Belhelvie Church in Scotland, locals found Lucy, a Persian cat.
She had been dumped in a box, and simply abandoned by her uncaring owner. She has since been cared for by the Scottish RSPCA, at their Aberdeenshire Animal Rescue Centre.
It was clear she had been neglected for quite some time, she was in very poor health with badly matted fur. Staff thinks she is around 16 years old and needs someone to care for her in the years she has left.
Because her fur was so badly matted, the team had to completely shave her coat. They then moved on to remove most of her teeth due to severe dental disease. Lucy must have been suffering so much, however, after months of rehabilitation, she is well down the road to recovery.

“Understandably, because she was found abandoned, and in such a bad way when she came to us, she was unsure about human interaction. Since realizing we are here to help her she is a much more confident cat and has settled completely..
“She came into our care malnourished, and after having to shave her she was even tinier. She wore a cozy jumper to keep her warm enough, and we fattened her up with tasty morsels.”
“Her lovely fur is beginning to grow back and is soft and fluffy. We are looking for an experienced owner for Lucy who is aware of the time and care needed to maintain her coat so it can grow to its former glory.”
She will need regular grooming to keep her looking her best.
“We feel Lucy would be happiest in a quiet adult-only household where she is the only pet so she can have all the fuss and attention to herself. She would also be best as an indoor cat.”
Those interested in becoming Lucy’s new owner should apply via the Scottish SPCA website.
