Josie

Trapped as part of a TNR project in New Britain in March of 2017, the vet discovered that Josie had a circumferential wound at the base of her tail. Her tail was paralyzed and needed to be amputated. Most of her teeth were also missing with just 2 remaining.
After the surgery, the vet discovered that she had deficits in both her hind legs and walked with dropped hocks. This, along with possible hearing issues made it impossible to release her back outside. Her options: euthanasia or come to the Sanctuary. She arrived on 3/21/17. At about 13 years old she remains shy around people not allowing anyone to come near but has made progress with small steps towards allowing people closer to her. There are some cats that she seems to want to make friends with and others that she is fearful of. She remains a slow work in progress learning to trust people.
