No one would blame Gertrude the cat if she hated dogs for the rest of her life. After all, she had been fiercely attacked by them before being rescued in Mexico and taken to Compassion Without Borders in California.
The attack forced her to go into surgery and she lost her little of unborn kittens to the attack.

So it’s no surprise that everyone expected her to dislike or be afraid of dogs.

But as she recovered, the maternal void within her grew, and that’s when she met Clementine for the first time. Clementine was a little puppy who had been abandoned along with her littermates.
