Daisy the cat

An animal emergency that had a happy ending

Daisy, an eleven-year-old cat, became an animal emergency when her elderly owner was terminally ill with cancer and passed away. Unfortunately, the beautiful, three-leggedcatcould not stayin the family, because the daughter has to look afteraged and sometimes sick cats herself. Adding Daisy would overburdenthe cats already living in the householddue to their illnesses.

"Unfortunately, my mother has become a nursing case ..."

A touching email reached Gut Aiderbichl’s animal emergency centre. It is always Gut Aiderbichl’s goal to help the vulnerable. By helping animals out of various sad situations, we also support their people.

The daughter tells us that her mum had taken in a young cat against her well-intentioned advice. Daisy was everything to the old woman, who was dying of cancer at the age of 92.
Some time ago, the old lady moved into a flat in a retirement home with her beloved Daisy. It soon became apparent that her mother’s condition was deteriorating and her daughter lovingly cared for Daisy. Taking Daisy from her mother was not an option.
The incurable disease confined the mother to her bed, and her state of health no longer allowed for therapy. Daisy’s owner passed away, and now the cat had to leave the flat in the retirement home.

Daisy should go to an animal shelter - She was spared this fate

Every animal emergency is different when it comes to the plight and fate of animals. Gut Aiderbichl was able to help, and Daisy has been living in the cat living room at the animal visitor centre in Henndorf for several weeks now.

She has settled in well. When Daisy sometimes finds everything a little too much, she clambers up a little higher onto a lounger in the cat living room. She can then observe the situation from above, and you get the impression that she likes the hustle and bustle on the one hand and the important peace and quiet in the cat living room on the other.

Daisy loves to snuggle up in her little bed in the sun. I wonder what she dreams about?
Daisy trusts people, but she realises that she is no longer with her owner. Her life situation has changed. We think that Daisy is quite content and happy in her new forever home.

If you’re looking for Daisy, she likes to stay in the front row of the pink bed.

Animals are free beings. They freely offer us their love ... their friendship ... their help ... their trust. We can learn a lot from them if we start to see all the things they have over us. - Sylvia Raßloff
