Arrived From:
Arrival Day: March 2019
In March 2019, a local rescuer notified us about a sick senior blind kitty living on
in a box on a woman’s front porch. We had to help. We found that, even though
her heart was in the right place, this elderly lady was overwhelmed with caring for
more than 30 cats! She badly needed help getting them all fixed and finding them
homes. When we saw photos of Jackie, we were very concerned about her eyes
and overall health and agreed she should come to BCR. She arrived the next day
in a large carrier sitting in her box, which was an empty kitty litter box. She did
have a serious eye infection and worms but was otherwise healthy, clean and well
fed. Jackie had not suffered from some kind of abuse as many of our other cats have,
she was just the victim of someone’s well-meaning intentions. This happens
frequently to people who have good hearts and want to help but are quickly
overwhelmed with what caring for so many cats actually entails. Jackie loves to
sit inside boxes to this day! She is BCR’s model and loves to pose for photos.
She does continue to have an eye condition but receives treatment for it as well as
all the love and care she could ever want.
