Devastated to read that sadly Phoenix has passed away.

The team at Redwings have been incredible in their treatment of him.

RIP little one run free over the Rainbow Bridge x

so sad, must be a real blow to the folk who have been involved with his day to day care.

How very sad for all concerned. A heroic effort and they did the best they could.

RIP Phoenix, I hope your attackers rot in hell. There are no words for evil scum like this.

Sad news for this poor little fella. Wish they had euthanised him the day he was discovered though.

So do I.

Yes, totally agree. It must be devastating for the staff that have got close to him but they should have let him go weeks ago.

Having seen dogs that have deliberately been set on fire and two GSDs that were burned with boiling water from a kettle, the pain is horrific and almost impossible to manage.

It's so sad but I have to agree with you on that one

I’ve also nursed one cat and one dog who were deliberately scalded. Both did survive but with hugely invasive nursing and treatment. Both much less badly burnt than this wee chap

I don’t want to comment poor Phoenix’s case apart from to say my heart is with all the people involved in his care, especially those closely involved with the day to day looking after him because it is heartbreaking and exhausting both emotionally and physically and I really hope they manage ok moving forward and they get support

In 30yrs of nursing I have never, nor will ever forget the two I looked after. I couldn’t get my head round, nor can I still understand how anyone could do that to another living creature

Poor little thing!
I must admit that I thought when I first read about him that euthanasia would have been the best course of action for him but I certainly sympathise with everyone who has been emotionally invested in his care and hoping for his recovery.

Just seen this in the local news, how very very sad for all the careers

And did the scum of the Earth perpetrators receive an appropriate legal punishment? I doubt it. I wonder what happened to them . . .?
