She is quite underweight and will have surgery if she gains enough weight. Unfortunately she will lose her right hind leg. “</p> <p>Holly is currently gaining weight in grooming and although she cannot carry weight on her right hind leg, she tries to play despite having a large bandaged leg.</p> <p>Despite everything she’s been through, Hogan says she loves to purr when she is touched and likes the sound of people talking to her.</p> <p>“Holly has a lot of sperm and she has shown that she is a survivor,” says Hogan. </p> <p>“We continue to see progress, and when she is amputated and fully recovered, she will be ready for adoption. It will definitely brighten up any home. “</p> <p>The medical cost of Holly’s care is expected to be nearly $ 3,000. </p> <p></p> <p style=
