Search for a home for a cat referred to as Sprout who has recovered from horrific attack

The cat – named Sprout as he was rescued simply earlier than Christmas – was mentioned to be in a “terrible state” after being attacked.

But he’s now on the highway to restoration because of an actual workforce effort involving volunteers at an animal rescue, veterinary employees and a cattery.

Kathryn Mullaney, a volunteer with Atherton-based animal rescue Andrea’s Leg5acy, mentioned: “He was a stray cat wandering from farm to farm. We had not seen him for quite a while and then he turned up on another farm in a right sorry state. He had been attacked, we think by a dog.”

Sprout sustained horrible accidents, together with to his abdomen and one in all his again legs.

Volunteers at Andrea’s Legacy took him to Atherton Veterinary Centre, the place the nurses determined to name him Sprout.

They handled his horrific wounds, however the harm on his legs needed to be left partially open so they might flush and clear it each day.

Sprout took every thing in his stride and when he was launched from the veterinary apply, he went to Brook Farm Cattery in Hindley Green, the place Beverley and Emily Southworth took over the each day cleansing of his wound and nursed him again to well being.

More than £1,000 has been spent on vets’ payments for Sprout, even with a reduction from the apply.

Sprout is now lastly on the mend and has been chipped, vaccinated and neutered.

He is now looking for a home, however to date no-one has come ahead to undertake him.

Kathryn mentioned: “He’s a black and white male cat and he’s lovely, but it’s not a popular colour so they don’t tend to get homed quickly. He’s very soft and docile and a lovely lap cat.

“He does deserve a home.”

She continued: “We are looking for a home away from main roads and definitely no dogs. He’s great with other cats, but he’s terrified of dogs. He does okay with older children.”

She thanked everybody at Atherton Veterinary Centre and Brook Farm Cattery for serving to Sprout.

Anyone occupied with adopting Sprout ought to contact the cattery on 01942 538691 or Andrea’s Legacy on Facebook.
