At just five weeks old, Uno was frail, weighing only 0.8 pounds, a far cry from where she should have been. Covered in dirt and hunger gnawing at her tiny frame, she was rushed to safety by Marlena and her team.

“I picked her up that night. She was around five weeks old based on her teeth and physical features. She only weighted 0.8 pounds, where she should’ve weighed 1.25 pounds,” Marlena shared.

“We rushed straight to the closest of our rescue homes for supplies to feed her. She suckled on my friend’s hand the whole way there.”
