Amy, previously called Slipper, was first taken in by Croydon Cats Protection (CPL) in 2002 as a
pregnant stray aged approximately two years. After having her kittens she was neutered and homed
to one of the branches volunteers.
Unfortunately in 2009 her owners had to ask for help from the branch as she was being bullied by a neigbouring cat when in the garden and terrified by young children indoors. She needed a quiet
home without children nor bullying cats. Amy came to us in February 2010 to be fostered till a
new home could be found for her.
She was taken to the vets for a checkup and to be dematted but on being seen by the vet she was
found to be very jaundiced. She was taken in immediately and put on a drip and had ultrasound and blood tests carried out to find the cause of the jaundice which was diagnosed as Cholangiohepatitis.
After a few days we were able to bring her home, she was prescribed antibiotics and Destolit tablets.
After nine weeks of treatment she had put on considerable weight and blood tests came back as very good, it was decided to stop her medication and see how she got on.
Early June 2010 Amy returned to the vets for a dental and to have further blood tests to see how she was progressing, all went very well and blood test results came back as excellent.
She had settled in so well with us that in late June 2010 we decided to adopt her so she will now live with us permanently.

All the treatment Jessica received was paid for by the Croydon Branch of Cats Protection (CPL).
