Grumpy shelter kitten transforms into happy love bug (Gallery)

This poor grumpy looking kitten came to the shelter in need of lots of love.

She quickly transformed from grouch to love bug.

The ginger girl was taken in by the San Jose Animal Care Center and she was in obvious discomfort.

She had feline scabies, a condition that causes hair loss and itchy skin.

"There is no clearer way to see how miserable scabies can make an animal than seeing the transformation of this one tiny kitten," Dr. Ostermann shares with Tails of a Shelter Vet.

"She wouldn't move much. She would sit, with squinted eyes, looking miserable."

Dr. Ostermann and her team began treatment for the little rescue feline and gave her what she needed to bring joy back into that little face.

Within a month, the changes in the kitten were incredible!

"A few weeks into her recovery, she was already looking happier and seemingly in less pain," Dr. Ostermann said.

Look at the transformation!

The ginger girl discovered her new found energy, and her playfulness was unleashed.

She was put up for adoption after she was completely healed and spayed. Of course, the little girl was adopted in no time!

She’s now happy in her forever home :)
