SAFE 1/9/18 Poor little Freddy was injured when he was caught in a car engine most likely trying to stay warm!! He has multiple injuries – a possible fracture, a wound on his back and needs urgent medical care. Freddy also has a URI and is underweight. He allows handling and has a ravenous appetite. Can someone foster this frightened baby so he can get the care he needs and recuperate??
