Two months ago, Lola was terrified of the world. Today, she had her first bath. 🤍🐾
When Lola came into our care, we honestly didn’t know how she had survived.
Her skin was in an unimaginable condition. Sores, scabs, swelling, wounds and cracked paws. The vet told us they had never seen a Sphynx in a condition like hers.
But her physical wounds weren’t the only thing she was carrying.
When we first tried to bathe her, Lola was absolutely petrified. She shook with fear and even peed herself.
We don’t know what happened to her before she was rescued.
We may never know.
But we knew one thing: we couldn’t let her fear become her future.
So we took it slowly.
For two months, we gave her patience instead of pressure. Treats instead of fear. Gentle hands instead of force.
And today, her foster brother showed her that bath time could be safe. He had his bath first, Lola watched… and then it was her turn.
And she did it. 🥹
No panic.
No shaking.
Just a brave little girl surrounded by treats, finally learning that she is safe.
And look at her skin now. 🤍
It’s so much better than when she arrived.
Lola still has a long road ahead. Next week she’s going back to the vet so we can check her skin and make sure her treatment is working.
But today, we celebrated a tiny miracle.
Because sometimes recovery doesn’t look like a dramatic transformation.
Sometimes it looks like a frightened little cat taking her first bath without being terrified.
Lola survived whatever her past was. Now we’re trying to give her a future worth surviving for.
Her GoFundMe is still only halfway there, and her next vet bill is coming.
If you can donate, even a few pounds can help us continue her treatment. If you can’t, please follow Lola’s journey and share this post. You can help us reach the people who can.
Please help us show Lola that her life from now on can be nothing but love. 🤍
