It was no surprise that due to her weakened immune system, she quickly picked up an upper respiratory infection at the shelter. Thankfully, Ricki is now safe and resting in her foster home where she is receiving lots of medicated baths and antibiotics for her skin and upper respiratory infection. Despite being so itchy and uncomfortable, she is still the happiest and sweetest girl. We are so excited to watch this sweet girl's beautiful transformation while she discovers unconditional love for probably the first time in her life. If you'd like to be a part of Ricki's journey, please consider donating to her care. Anything and everything makes a difference and is so greatly appreciated. Thank you so much in advance for your kindness!

Poor 4-month-old Ricki was stuck at the shelter while suffering from severe Demodex Mange. She was almost completely bald, infested in fleas, and quite literally shriveling away at the shelter.
When Fort Worth Abandoned Animal Alliance saw one picture of Ricki, they knew they needed to save her. Once rescuers got to the shelter, Ricki's condition was worse than they could have imagined. This precious girl was in dire need of not only medical care but also extensive TLC. It was no surprise that due to her weakened immune system, she quickly picked up an upper respiratory infection at the shelter.
