Upon encountering Lovebug for the first time, we were astounded by her appearance. Her nose had been severed due to a traumatic injury, leaving her with only two minuscule openings for breathing. Despite being in shock, she permitted us to attempt to rescue her and preserve her life.

Rescuing Lovebug was quite a challenge. She was in so much agony and fright that she rejected any food offered to her. We administered pain relief treatment, disinfected and irrigated her injuries, and extracted maggots from a distressing wound on one of her paws. Despite our diligent efforts, she persisted in refusing to eat.

The first day, we had high hopes that she would eventually consume some food. However, on the second day, our anxiety started to grow as she still showed no interest in eating. Our worries intensified on the third day when she continued to refuse any food offered to her. To make matters worse, her high activity level made it impossible to feed her through an IV line, leaving us feeling even more hopeless.

On the fourth day, a miracle occurred as Lovebug finally started to consume food! Even though it was a minor accomplishment, it provided us with optimism that she will recuperate fully.

In the upcoming weeks, Lovebug’s health improved gradually. Her injuries started to heal, and she started consuming more food as days passed by. With each passing day, her anxiety and discomfort reduced, and she became more fond and endearing.

It brought us immense happiness to witness Lovebug’s growth and development, and we strongly believed that she deserved a safe and loving home. Therefore, we utilized our connections within the animal-loving community to search for the ideal family for her. After several attempts, we finally found a family that was perfect for her. They were enamored with Lovebug from the get-go and showered her with the love and attention she required to flourish.

Lovebug’s tale is a remarkable example of the might of love, optimism, and determination. Despite encountering numerous obstacles, she never gave up. She gave it her all to stay alive and discover a caring family. Being a part of her expedition was an honor for us.
