This is Huggles.

shocking broom handle sexual abuse case, Huggles

This sweet, abandoned girl was found by a family on Tyler Drive in Windsor, Virginia, on April 29. She received veterinary treatment—including dental work, tumor removal, and spaying—but she continued to suffer from discharge, bleeding, and lethargy.

A follow-up surgery on June 14 revealed the full extent of the horrific abuse she had apparently endured before being found. X-rays showed that she had been sexually assaulted with a broom handle and that part of the handle was still inside her.
