she has lived with Doña Rita, who exploits her by sending her out on the
streets to beg or sell candies in order to “earn her food and bed”. As a child,
she became friends with Pablo, a wealthy child who cares for her and tries to
help her behind his mother´s back, Lorenza, who looks down on “The Stray Cat”
due to her social prejudices which make her reject poor, uneducated people.

love, Ángel Arriaga.”
Although she didn’t want to reveal a lot of details about
what is expected in the last episode, she revealed that she and y Eduardo Yáñez

Balvanera and José Ángel Arriaga.” Her last scenes were filmed yesterday in Quintana
Roo.
Buenfil also commented on the great chemistry she had with costar
