The cat is paralyzed, so Taxa takes care of it.3 photos

Animal rights activists shared a touching story: recently, a dog was found protecting a sick cat whose hind legs were paralyzed.
The cat was named Rufy, and the dog was named Iji, in honor of the heroines of the movie “Fried Green Tomatoes,” where women who have experienced tragic events support each other.
This pair was discovered three months ago under an overpass in Geneva, Florida, USA. The animals seemed well-cared for, but the dog would growl and bark at the activists if they tried to get too close.
It later turned out that the cat could only move with great difficulty, using its front legs to crawl. One charitable organization covered the costs of the diagnosis and medications, but veterinarians have not yet been able to determine the cause of the paralysis.
In the end, Rufy and Iji were taken in by the owner of a private animal shelter. The friends live comfortably there—they are well-fed and given regular baths. Many people visit them, and unfortunately, the cat’s health is deteriorating. However, Iji will stay by its side until the very end.
