Rescue Saves Sick Cat Family from Bronx Nail Salon
A mother cat named Frenchie and her five kittens were found in a hidden spot behind a nail salon in the Bronx, critically ill and suffering severe diarrhea. The Cat Collective Rescue NY pulled the family into safety and began intensive care. The kittens received medications, high-calorie supplements, special food, constant cleaning, and litter boxes changed several times a day. The smallest kitten, Polly Polish, was the most fragile, hovering near death, but a volunteer named Nicola Jones nursed her back to health. Frenchie, who had been running on empty and had given all her strength to nurse the kittens while she herself went hungry, now takes her medicine without a fight. The five kittens are thriving and the mother is finally being looked after herself. All six animals are now safe, fed, and surrounded by people who refused to look away.
