Super cute: Kitten wears mushroom outfit (Picture: Imgur)

Wearing a super cute crocheted mushroom costume is never guaranteed to improve a sick kitten’s health – but it certainly appears to help.

Abandoned moggy Wasabi-chan was rescued from the street by a blogger in Japan after a brutal crow attack left her with severe injuries.

‘She was attacked by a crow,’ explained Reddit user DopeSk1llz. ‘Her top jaw was fractured, a hole in her throat, tongue was ripped, and part of gum was eaten.

‘The rescuer was feeding her with a tube which Wasabi-chan hates, thus [created] this crochet to hold her down while feeding.

‘She’s gaining lots of weights and is now looking adorable!’



Wasabi’s health is slowly improving everyday, with her rescuers documenting the feline’s progress on Twitter and Instagram where she now has thousands of followers.

With the aid of a dedicated grandmother’s colourful cotton outfits, it shouldn’t be long before Wasabi has recovered fully.
