Bernice's Video Made by Her Friends at Animal Hospital of Oshkosh

A hospital staffer made this touching video on Bernice and her journey from the time she was found, burned and alone, up to about two weeks ago when she had made great progess. The video also shows Bernice with her caretakers and is a thank you from the hospital to all of her supporters. Bernice has continued to improve since this video was made.

    Oh my gosh, how sad to see her beginning here, BUT, it shows hope and healing later, poor Bernice deserves the BEST home ever, a quiet, peaceful one I think would be best for all she’s gone through. I pray for her healing and for the monster who did this to be caught and castrated……It breaks my heart to see this abuse done to helpless animals….

    truly touching video. Bernice is a fighter but she couldn’t have done it without her human friends at Oshkosh. Thank you for restoring my faith in humanity. (Been a bad week for cats)

    I cried both tears of saddness and joy. I hope she continues her fight to healing. She is beautiful. I hope whoever did this to her gets a knock of bad karma a thousand fold.

    What a truly awful thing to have happened to this little girl. I can’t begin to imagine the horrific pain she must have been in and is probably still experiencing. I’m glad that she’s getting stronger and knowing love and feeling safe. Thank you to Bernice’s caregivers – your caring, patience and dedication are reaping huge dividends for this little girl (and boy, is she tiny). You’re doing amazing work. Please keep us updated on this little one’s progress.

    Facebook page (hit enter by accident and dang comment posted) so I saw this when it first posted. I’ve watched it several times since then and it makes me tear up every time. The post new pics of Bernice frequently. She even got a cat nip banana to play with a couple of days ago. She’s still improving, bless her heart!

    I’m so glad Bernice found her way to the Animal Hospital of Oshkosh. Many towns aren’t equipped to take care of an animal in Bernice’s condition, and for a kitty who has such a will to live and love to have fallen into the hands of this wonderful group of people, it is truly a miracle.

    Amazing video of an amazing cat and her caretakers. My heart hurts so for Bernice and the pain she must endure every day in her recovery process, but she is recovering thanks to the angels at Oshkosh. I hope Bernice’s forever home is filled with the love, peace and softness she so deserves.

    God bless Bernice, what a fighter and no complaints from her. Thank you to those who are making her better everyday. It makes people stronger to watch what she is going thru. I know it makes me want to become a better person to see all the pain she is going thru. What a lucky person who gets to adopt her as she is quite the special kitty.
