But there is more news. Unfortunately, during her stay at the clinic we also discovered Aruba has respiratory problems. She developed a bilateral pneumonia, a consequence of the Strongyloides parasites larvae she was suffering from. She has undergone several treatments to improve her health so we are hopeful she will also be able to fight this problem.

Since Aruba came into our lives, she has spent her time between overnight stays in the clinic and in her foster/quarantine home. We are very pleased she has a loving family to look after and give her all the love and special care she needs to be happy and recover successfully. It is a long process but we all have the patience she needs to help her through her time of healing.

Of course, all of the treatments until now and the estimated future treatments to support Aruba through her ordeal, including the surgeries, medicines and check-ups amounts to a lot. In total we foresee at least 1.200 euros in bills alone. Fortunately we can give our love and as expertise as volunteers for free.

As you know, at Aldea Felina we help the cats we take in. We are reliant on your private donation. Solely and exclusively thanks to the funds we receive through your donations can we continue to bring these precious animals back to the fit and healthy life they deserve.

That is why we have to appeal again to your generosity and support. We only publish the special cases, which are an extraordinary effort for us and whose story touches our hearts the most. Of course, all our cats are special, and to visit those waiting to be adopted you only need to make an appointment to visit us.

As you can see here, our work is never done and is not possible without your help. Please help Aruba and donate as little or as much as you can to this worthy cause. We will update you again soon with her progress and by following our project you can see how much support we receive as we regularly update our donation total.

We thank you, and Aruba thanks you, for your kind heart.
