Miss Lily Whiskers
Location: Cardiff, Wales, UK
Lily was found in a rubbish skip when she was 3 weeks old. Someone had thrown her away after brutally torturing her. She needed 24/7 vet care. However, she was a real survivor and now that she has recovered and grown up a bit she felt that you needed to see her beautiful six month old baby pictures.

Awwww poor little baby. I’m glad somebody is taking good care of her now. Miss Lily looks like a sweetie.
She is a sweetie, and watching me as I type this. 🙂 She has turned into a beautiful, self confident, loving, bossy young lady who makes me laugh every day!
awwww. Miss Lily Whiskers is beautiful and I love her wink…bless you for saving this poor baby…
Double blessing upon you for saving this poor baby. That just breaks my heart that someone would hurt this beautiful soul. Shame on that person.
Lots of hugs and scritchies to Miss Lilly Whiskers
Thank you 🙂
Survivor kitty! Here’s hoping Miss Lily Whiskers has a great life from here on out.
Well, she certainly rules my life with an iron paw, if that counts? ;o)
If you look at her expression, Lily is DETERMINED to make it and she WILL! What a GREAT attitude! I bet she will be a wonderful cat for your household. She can do anything she puts her mind to, because of what she’s been through. What a beautiful face! God bless you, Lily Whiskers, have a FANTASTIC life–you deserve EVERY minute of it!!!!
THU-PLOOF!
Isn’t she beautiful! What a wonderful job you’ve done in bringing her back to life. And such a lovely photo of her — she knows she’s very much loved.
Such a sweet baby! Lily has a lovely face. I just can’t understand how on earth anybody can torture a sweet little kitty like this and then throw her away. Thank goodness you have found her and given her a wonderful furrever home!
Amen to that, Rubia. I have to try to think positive thoughts about the person who rescued her, or I’m just going to cry about the evil person who tortured such a cutie.
same here
I’m trying to think positive thoughts about the *&^%$# who torture innocent helpless animals, but I’m afraid all I can do is hope that they have similar experiences happen to them. I just get soooooooo mad when I read things like this.
I have to agree with you on this, CheetahBoysMommy. I hope karma doesn’t take too long getting even with the animal who did this.
I’m very glad someone has given Miss Lily Whiskers a furever home! She is adorable!
The sad fact is that people who torture animals often have been helpless victims themselves of people they should have been able to trust. Almost inevitably they take out their rage and pain on those who they can hurt, the small animals of the world – who can’t tell on them. I’ve seen it again and again. God bless us all.
Makes me want to cry…..I dont know how people can be so cruel to animals. I’m glad she is better now. She is very precious….and deserves a lot of love which I am sure she’s getting! Thank you for being so kind.
-One cat lover to another
Dallas, I was going to post, then after reading your’s
it is all I would have said. So ditto.
Ditto from me too!!!
Ditto again
hey Dallas, I too was going to comment, but you’ve captured my sentiments perfectly. Thank God Lily has a loving home now, and God bless her new loving family!
Ditto from me too! She is just sooooo precious. I would love to see her on catster and see her as she grows!!
I’ll try and sort something out. :O)
Such a trooper you sweet little girl. You are a furball of cuteness. All you need is a patch and you would be such a cute little pirate! I could cuddle with you all day.
What a pretty kitty! So glad she now knows love…
How can people even be so cruel? It is just mind boogling how anyone can prey on a little defenseless kitten or any other animal. Or, come to think of it, person. But Lily, you are beautiful and bless your family for taking you in and giving you a loving home.
May you have many happy years with this sweetie & God bless you for rescuing her!
She’s gorgeous!
God bless you for loving this kitty.
She’s just beautiful.
What goes around comes around. Your love will be rewarded just the same as the cruelty will be given back to the offender.
Oh my! She is beautiful. Thank you for rescuing her and taking care of her. You are an angel. Love her wink and bright little face. Smoochie smoochie!
What a darling Lily she is. Kisses to her and to YOU for rescuing such a little sweetheart. I think folks who torture animals need a bit of the same treatment back…just to get a real FEEL for what they’ve done.
I think Teresa is right. I love her permanent wink. How people can do such things to any animal is beyond me. Blessings for saving this baby…
What a sweet kitten. I want to get my hands on those @********* to be honest I can’t think of anything bad enough to call them.
Stand in line, Sandi — I wanna rip ’em so far apart the CSI team won’t be able to reassemble their DNA. X(
:angry:
Why is this not expressing my anger in emoticons? Trying this again… >(
👿
Ditto here too.
Vicki, emotionicoms or not I think you did a good job of expressing your anger. I think we will scatter their DNA so far that CSI won’t even be able to find it
I should of looked up the spelling of emoticons because I had a feeling I didn’t have it right
Oh my soul! What a sweet little baby! I am so sorry for the loss of her eye! It’s the eye that will forever be watching her torturers and will deliver their final judgment. Lilly is a beautiful little furry flower…and I think she needs a good old fashioned cuddle and snorgle! Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr……….
She gets that every night when she snuggles under the duvet and steals my hot water bottle!
Lily Whiskers. you are beautiful! I lived in Cardiff for 3 years when I was a teenager, lovely city. It is beyond comprehension how the supposed intelligent species on this planet could hurt a little blessing like you Lily..may you forget your past sadness and be adored for the rest of your days.Thank you for rescuing this pretty angel.
So is a beautiful kitten and so lucky that you were able to save her and give her a happy life after her bad start. Big hugs to the both of you.
What a gorgeous baby! I agree with what everyone else has said–how can you hurt anything this precious? I can’t even kill a spider–my honey laughs cause I catch ’em and put ’em outdoors! Hugs to Lily and blessings to you for daving her!
UHHH! that would be “saving” her….(blush)
I have two “one-eyed” kitties-brother and sister. Their loss of vision has not impaired their wonderful personalities. My boy “Squint” is the light of my life! Bless you for taking in this sweet-faced baby.
my heart just melted! what a beautiful little girl! I am glad she found you to take all her past troubles away.
What a pretty little Lily Whiskers you are! I love your name. So glad you have a good home now after such a rough start.
There is a special place in Hades for such awful people that would hurt a precious being. Grrrrr….
what an awful beginning to life, but a beautiful “ever after”. i want to cry looking at that precious face.
I have to believe there is a special hell for people who torture animals. I have a friend who is fostering a chihuahua mix who was continually physically abused by the adult male in the house. Poor thing will not go near a man and was close to being put down because of biting. My friend decided to foster and hopes to find a good home for him.
Miss Lily you’re a beautiful girl and so glad you found a home of love and support. If only so many others were lucky enough to find a good home.
What a precious baby! I’m so glad someone rescued her and loved her back to health.
What a sweetheart she is. Bless you for saving her. I hope she has nothing but happiness and love ahead of her.
Well she certainly fills my life with love and happiness :o)
The monster that did this to Lily is nothing but trash. I think it is so beautiful that you gave Lily a warm,loving home rather than do what some might consider the humane thing. She is a fighter after surviving such an injury at such a young age. Bless you for rescuing her.
Susie, trash is too nice a word fpr them. Maybe filthy trash but even thats a little on the kind side for them.
It’s hard to believe a civilized human being would torture a small animal or anything else. But I guess they weren’t civilized.
That monster that did this must have been abused himself.
Poor little kitty! I am glad she found a nice home! She is adorable!
What a beautiful little spirit Miss Lily is! She is 10 times better than the morons who hurt her. Thank you for giving her a happy life-she deserves all the love and cuddles she can get!
What is wrong with some people? Seriously! To hurt an innocent animal is just sick. Lily is beautiful and I’m so glad you took care of her! She’s sweet! 🙂
That “person” is probably going to morph into a serial killer–that’s how they start.
The wrath, as ell as the prayers, of us TDK-ers can work wonders–
She is beautiful!
Good for her! – very nice of you to give the one eyed girl and her brother a home.Please have his mother spayed. I will pay to have it done if you cannot. We have to stop generating more cats when there are already so many that are put to death every day- there are too many..
What a sweetie…
Miss Lily Whiskers, you are a truly beautiful, miracle kitten. I’m so pleased you’ve found a happy home. 🙂
And as for the scum who treated you so badly – there really are no words. Stick ’em in a room with a few of us; they’d welcome Hell after that.
Miss Lily Whiskers is adorable. What a sweet little face! I’m so glad she found happiness! I think she’s PURRRRFECT!!!
Lucky Lily and love you for saving her.
Sweet baby – Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for saving little Lily Whiskers.
Miss Lily is such a beautiful little girl. Bless her sweet little heart. She is adorable. Stay strong Lily. I’m glad you were found and survived. Many happy Purrs to you and your family.
Awwww, what a sweetie! Glad to hear she’s got a good life now!
Glad she has a good home now…bless you for saving her…I hope the people who abuse animals get punished big time.
Makes me so angry when our beloved pets are abused or tortured.
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!
Lovely Lily, she sure is growing up a beauty, thank you for saving her! You can see her cheerful soul despite her missing an eye.
How anyone can torture a helpless tiny kitten is beyond me. What goes around, comes around, good and bad. Lily’s forever home humans have golden hued karma coming there way, and her tormentor, well, let’s just say it’s something well deserved.
How wonderful to hear from someone in Wales – a place I’ve always wanted to visit as back in history we had ancestors from there.
I am so glad you were able to find this beautiful baby and give her the care she needed. How people are able to be cruel to any living thing, but especially a helpless kitten is beyond my understanding. Blessings of you and your family.
Wales is a very beautiful country and wonderful to visit. :o)
Slightly sad, but lovely little face, and glad she can enjoy a good home after the abuse. I’ve been a lifelong atheist, but if I’m wrong and there is a life after death, I’d happily spend a large part of it personally doing to all animal abusers exactly what they did to the helpless animals who crossed their paths. Day after day after …… Bless those who rescue some of these little ones and show them that not all humans are monsters.
Lily is such a beautiful and sweet kitten. It is so heartbreaking to hear what happened to her, I have tremendous ire towards those who would hurt such a sweet creature. But I happy to hear that she found love and a home, and is doing well now. Thanks for sharing her photo and her story.
What a sweetheart Lily is! How could anyone do what was one to her! Thank you for rescuing her!! Many hugs to Lily!!!
What a beautiful, brave little girl. I, too hope there is a special hell for abusers, both of animals and kids.
Bless you for taking this wonderful baby in and giving her a loving home and a life to look forward to.
when Ihear of things like this it just makes me wish we would have kept some of the ways of justice that is in the old testament ;ie:
such as an eye for an eye,punishment was swift and just and a person would definately have lost their eye for putting out this sweet baby’s eye I’m sure.After all when god put man on this earth he charged Adam and his decendents to protect and care for his other creations before and after the garden of eden.We are Adams decendents; all of us are accountable to carry out that charge and to
meet out a punishment that fit the crime.
In ancient Egypt people worshiped cats.. Anyone guilty of cruelty to a cat was put to death!
Amen,as it shall come to pass.
Miss Lily Whiskers:
So pleased that you rescued her. Hope that she has a long and happy life with you, which is more than I can say for the abusers!!!
Pirate FUZZ!
Be nice to animals FUZZ
Such a little treasure to grace her happy home.
I’m glad Miss Lily survived her ordeal so she can know the love she now
has. What a pretty girl!
oh i just love everything about this tough little beauty! her story is so sad 🙁 but i’m so happy she is rescued and living a good life now :)she’s just lovely…truly beautiful!
What a sweet little face 🙂 I can’t believe how some people would hurt innocent little animals. Miss Lily Whiskers is beautiful and I hope she has a happy life from this day forward.
What a sweet little puddin’! Thank you for taking such good care of her!
Her markings remind me of my Sarge and before him my cat Opus (RIP). You saved a wonderful kitty. I’d adopt her in a heartbeat.
Sorry, she’s already home and going nowhere!…….Until she lets another mouse go in my kitchen, LOL! ;o)
Oh my, what a little love. I’ll choose to think only about what a wonderful life she has before her now–she looks very well-loved 🙂 Kudos to you for being her fairy godmother!
Thank you for showing this darling that not all humans are vicious and cruel. I hope you have a wonderful life together!!
Awwww what a cutie! I hope whoever did this to her gets bit in the @$$ with karma.
But, kudos to Miss Lily Whiskers for making this hindrance add to her charm! She looks liek she has a great personality…er…kittenality!
Miss Lily Whiskers you are my hero. God Bless your little kitty heart. Thank you for loving her and we send big hugs to all of you!!
What a beautiful girl! I so want to snuggle her and hear her purr.
I’m so glad you saved her and that she is safe and loved. 🙂
Such a sad beginning for a little beautiful kitten,Thank you for careing and saving her. Lil
She was such a cute little kitten! You all should see her now that she’s a grown cat and the boss of the house. 🙂

Ive just joined, and have looked at so many photos…(Im a avid cat lover) and this little kitten has stolen my heart. How any human can do this horrific act to such and innocent creature just befudles my mind. I can only say that this beautiful little kitty has found the love and care it so deserves. Please keep us posted on her adventures!!
Lots of kitty hug and kisses for you Miss Lily Whiskers. You are a lovely lady. Terrible things happen to people who torture animals and Wonderful rewards to people who rescue and love them. You are a beautiful lady!!!!!!!!
God bless the beasts and the children, and special blessings to those who care for them.
Thank and Bless You for taking this sweet little kitty in and for giving it a loving and “save’ home. It is such a shame that there are people so hurt that they need to hurt a defenseless kitty as this one. And yet, this little one is a survivor, YEAA!!! That makes me so happy for my heart actually hurt when I read the caption.
This is the first time I’ve ever posted.
I just wanted to thank you for saving this beautiful cat.
My heart breaks everytime I see the picture.
I don’t know how anyone can hurt that beautiful face.
My boyfriend and I found a kitten in July. We thank the heavens that WE found him and not some horrible person for him to be abused by.
yes, we kept our found kitten and named him Angel 🙂
Thank you for all your kind comments about Miss Lily Whiskers. She is a wonderful addition to my family, and doesn’t know that she has a disability. She is quirky, funny, cheeky, very loving, and I thank Bast every day for putting her into my life.
What a BEAUTY!!!! You have a good home now and lots of love!! I’m so happy for you!! I can’t believe some people can hurt animals… it’s just awful… but this little one survived and wow, what a sweet face!!
I would like to catch and torture the Godless heathen that harmed such a beautiful thing…hmmmm…an eye for an eye…..sounds fair to me
Excuse me, why do you slander the Godless? This is suppose to be a FUN blog. How would you like it if I pointed out that during the Dark Ages the God-FUL nearly drove the cat EXTINCT in Europe during the witch hunts?
because you are an idiot?
I saw this beautiful photo only a moment ago and apologize for being late with my comment. Hrfltiger, I sat here and cried when I re-lived (yes, RE-LIVED) the torture that sweet Miss Lily Whiskers went through. I cannot find words to express my gratitude to you for keeping her in your life, and my ideas on what to do with the abuser are wreaking havoc on my soul.
I am eager to learn how she was found, and what had happened to her eye and who brought her to your loving and caring home … the way it must have happened makes this a miracle. I know that animals which survive such an ordeal are meant to stay among us mortals to fulfill a special task. I am sure she will reveal it to you when the time is there. Hail to Bast who sent her straight into your arms. Blessed Be.
I’ve been visiting this site for months now. However, after seeing Miss Lily Whiskers, I felt absolutely compelled to register and voice my thoughts. I, too, shed tears when I saw her beautiful little face. And IMO, spent a minute too long thinking about what exactly happened to her. I can only thank whoever found this little gem, the team of vets who saw to her recovery, and the wonderful, lucky individuals who can now call her a member of the family. Lots of warm wishes for many years of happiness together!
I can’t get this kitty out of my thoughts. I even printed her picture and have it at my desk. That sweet face! Like most people here, I shudder at the horrors she experienced and do not understand the sickness that grips people and allows them to hurt animals and / or people. Thank goodness she was rescued, loved, given medical care. Thank goodness she knows she is loved, and that she can now be bossy and sassy and spoiled. Her rescue restores my faith in humanity. I wish I could give her lots of hugs and kisses and pets, but I trust her family does that every day 🙂 I believe I will always have her beautiful little face in my mind somewhere. Her image has become representative, and inextricably linked with both good and evil. Just a little baby girl kitty – that’s a lot to put on those teeny shoulders.
Sometimes I get tired of the cleaning and the money spent and I wonder why I spend time and money and energy doing animal rescue. Then I see a little one like Lily Whiskers and it reminds me it’s because we are the stewards of all things living, and it is my responsibility to take care of every little one, or big one, who crosses my path.
It’s people like Lily’s protectors, and animals like Lily, who keep me motivated to keep going, keep stopping the car every time I see an animal in need, going into abandoned houses to rescue mommas and babies, and educate, educate, educate everyone I can about spay/neuter.
Thank you Miss Lily, for reminding me.
What a sweet little kitten! It’s so great that you were able to find her and give her a loving home. You are both blessed!
It breaks my heart to think that someone could do such a thing! God gave us these little creatures for love, companionship, and fun. This story made me cry. Im glad she now has a good home and a great life. May God bless you for your compassion! kisses for Miss Lily Whiskers. muah!
