This cat was mis-treated by its owner and thrown out onto the street, unable to walk. The guy in the video rescued it and nursed it back to full health. They now make a really beautiful partnership,...
I found this page of great photos on the BBC website and thought that others here might enjoy them too: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/in-pictures-45201056 What I really want to know though is how anyone...
