Meet Tula!

I'm Tula! My exact birthday is unknown, however my veterinarians think I was about six weeks old in August, which would make my birthday sometime in late June 2012. A wonderful lady rescued me from a parking lot on a Friday in August. I was all alone. She brought me to the local veterinary clinic, but was unable to keep me, especially since I needed so much work done. You see, (no pun intended) I had an incredibly bad infection on my eye balls. I had a half inch of just stuff on my eyes. My right eye was even hanging halfway out!! Yuck!!! But I was still irresistibly cute, even with all that gook on my eyes. The doctors wouldn't euthanize me, knowing someone somewhere would be willing to give me a home. A veterinarian student working at the clinic decided she would be the one to take me home!!! And what a home! I would come home to two new brothers, Puffball and Raccoon, and a new sister, Milo. Three days after I was brought into the clinic, I had surgery to remove my eyeballs. I did really well, considering I was only six weeks old. At my new home, my family realized they would be in for more trouble then they expected.
