Our ‘Patient of the Month' this month isn't really a patient at all, but a beautiful stray one of our clients brought to us, after discovering she was caring for days-old kittens in a drain at the bottom of her garden!
‘Mama Snow' is a 3 year old domestic shorthair cat, with a white coat and beautiful blue eyes - unfortunately for her, this combination of white fur and blue eyes means that she is genetically deaf. It doesn't make her any less of a mother though, as she diligently cares for her three tiny babies, two of which are also white, and one who is a brown tabby!
She has adapted to clinic life well, and is very laid back about sharing her sweet furry children with the doting nurses - right now the babies are about two weeks old, which means we are waiting excitedly for them to open their eyes and take a look around at the world for the first time! We will keep you updated on 'Mama Snow' and her babies and their progress as they grow!
