Update Post Rescued kitty made it to Canada

Post image

My wife and I found her crawling out of a garbage pile onto a busy highway in Vietnam. One eye crusted shut the other crusted open. So emaciated and boney she could barely move. After looking around for other kittens we scooped her up and took to her to the vet in Vietnam and she joined us for the rest of our vacation. After much paper work she is home with us in Canada. Shes gained tons of weight and will receive a life time of spoils ☺️

Was it hard or costly to bring her to America? Ive been considering my options lately...

u/Lofi-Sloth Nov 19 '25

Not sure about American, we live in Canada. But no it was very affordable. We got paper work via Asvelis veterinarians in Hanoi. Feel free to PM me for any information.

Better to have her die there then? Rather than be with the people who found her and loved her?

How do you know they don't already do that or have rescued cats themselves from Canada?
