The symptoms and appearance of veins will slowly get worse over time. As you age and become less active they can deteriorate leading to skin changes or even ulcers.

Even small veins can become painful and can undermine a person's confidence and self-esteem.

She loves people and is extremely affectionate. She has been spayed, vaccinated and microchipped and is in good health. She needs a home.
Mabel was abandoned by one of our neighbours when he moved back to Australia just before lockdown. She was malnourished and neglected. We took her to the vet to have her spayed etc and have been feeding her over lockdown, but cannot keep her.
We have let Mabel inside from time to time, and she is not litter trained. She needs someone who is prepared to train her and give her lots of love. Please message me if you are interested in giving Mabel a home or want to find out more. If you're interested, you are very welcome to come and meet Mabel before deciding.
Thank you,
Esther
