Forest was found on the feeder road of I45 outside of Forest Lakes Subdivision.    She had been hit by a car and left to die.   Found by the local constables and taken to AARF Houston, Forest was immediately taken to the vet where it was discovered she suffered from a collapsed lung, dehydration, anemia, malnutrition and a broken leg.

Immediate steps were taken to treat the underflying infections, and malnutrition and to treat the collapsed lung.   A few days on steroids and antibiotics administered through IV fluids and Forest was well enough to undergo surgery to repair her leg.  

Resting and recouperating, Forest is looking for her forever home.
