So glad you found each other & that you got her out of there early! And thank goddess for the pupper who took up for her!

Awwwwww... nursing on your ear & neck.

I only know that my senior was found with her litter of kittens in an abandoned car. So, pretty sure she was food deprived. 💔

I always think of my dad who grew up during Depression. We were fortunate to always have plenty of food, but he never got over his younger years of food insecurity.
