Meow and the Big Fire:
Those of you living in the city centre may have been aware that there was an apartment fire last night close to the Dock.
Meow lived in that apartment.
His desperate owners ran back into the blaze to rescue him, but in the panic, he wriggled free and ran back again, seeking his 'safe' place.
He was eventually found by fire fighters, but by then he had inhaled a huge amount of smoke and was having seizures.
Despite being told by paramedics to go to the hospital herself, his distraught owner took Meow to the emergency Vets where his chances if pulling through looked bleak.
He spent last night in an oxygen tent in intensive care.
Remarkably this morning, still covered in thick soot, he seemed brighter, and incredibly, has continued to improve with us today.
He seems to have injured his tail or pelvis so he is due for xrays in a day or so.
The whole team have pulled put all the stops to nurse Meow today. Everyone is fighting for him to pull through. His poor student owners have lost literally everything.....except him.
We have everything crossed for this beautiful boy who is defying the odds to fight through. And on today, when the Grenfell report comes out, we are sending our love to the families of the 72 and of course, to the family of Meow, who has captured all of our hearts
