HAVANA TIMES – She used to spend her days at a dump. She blended right in with the earth because of her brown skin and people would throw garbage on top of her; she’d run away afraid and then come back.
With her long legs and her slim body, she would walk slowly as if her existence in this world weighed her down. She put up with the rain and people’s indifference; until we started giving her food, affection and attention.
Now, she is recovering from being spayed and, in spite of her stitches, she seems to tread a lot lighter, her tail is raised expressing her happiness and she spends the whole day playing with whatever she comes across.
Her stitches will be removed in a few days and after that, Champan will return to the street. There, she will catch new parasites and continue to be exposed to road accidents. Her skin, which is now recovering, will get worse again because of the bread she will eat around nearby kiosks.
She’s only a few months old, but she probably won’t make it to her first birthday if she doesn’t find a home. You can change her life; she will give you a lot of affection and company.
