Eli, Sharon, Iris, and Fae NEED OUR HELP
Tax deductible
Please meet the four sweetest babies: Eli, Sharon, Iris, and Fae. They are your typical kitties that love attention, play hard and nap even harder. They enjoy human companionship and most importantly they have so much love to give. As a C2CND orphan, these once abandoned kitties not only depend on us, but also depend on all of our supporters when things get hard. Life has not been easy for these four, they have unfortunately experienced life a bit harder than others. Not only were they once abandoned and homeless but they are in a lot of pain, pain that can only be repaired with surgery. We cannot turn our backs on them but we also acknowledge that surgery for FOUR kitties is anything but affordable. Our vets have given us an estimate of almost $4,700, this will include surgery, aftercare, medication, and any additional visits needed. Being advocates for the voiceless we cannot turn our backs on them but we also must once again ask for help from all of our amazing supports to help us improve the quality of life for these kitties.
Eli- is a lovable kitty who is almost a year old. He came to us because he was having terrible issues with his neuter. Trauma to a nerve ending in the tissue of his scrotum causes such extreme pain Eli has chewed through the tissue trying to seek relief from the pain. Many trips to the vet, medications, and ointments have not eased the issue and he will not require a scrotal ablation. For his surgery, aftercare, and medications we are in need of $878.69 to heal him so he can move in to Mac Tabby and show the world how amazing he is!
Fae- this little old lady calico was found living on the streets where she was being chased down by a loose dog. She was saved by an amazing person who took her in and immediately reached out to us. This little old lady is in her golden years, we anticipated she is probably at least 12 years old. She had been living on the streets for a long time, and she is declawed. She is severely underweight, and her entire mouth is rotted out. The dental disease is so severe several nerve endings are exposed. We need to remove all of her teeth as well to ensure she can eat without pain. For her surgery, aftercare, and medication we are in need of $1,154.64.
Sharon- is an amazing cat who was displaced from her previous living situation because she struggled to get along with other cats and was sent to animal control the same week they had announced they were going to need to euthanize for space. We rushed to her aide to learn that her behavior issues were due to Stomatitis that was affecting her entire mouth. We have worked hard over the last several months to manage her condition but we have reached a point where our vet has indicated it is time to remove her teeth in order for her to live a happy and healthy life. For her surgery, aftercare, and medications we are in need of $1,246.78 to heal her so that she can find her forever family.
Iris- is one of our amazing tabby kitties who raised her kittens while in rescue. We adore this little lady and she is a cat crew favorite at Mac Tabby. We are so blessed that she gets to spend her days up there with our other kitties teaching the world that kitties are AWESOME and so deserving of all our love. Despite her positive attitude she is in terrible pain. She too is suffering from Stomatitis. We have been unsuccessful managing her condition with medication. To ensure there is no more pain our vet has indicated it is her time as well to have her teeth removed. For her surgery, aftercare, and medication we are in need of $1,350.15.
Feline Stomatitis:
Feline stomatitis is a severe, painful inflammation of a cat’s mouth and gums. In most cases, the condition causes ulcers to form in the mouth; these ulcers can involve the lips, tongue, gums, and back of the throat. Cats of any age or breed can be affected. There is no single cause of feline stomatitis. Dental disease (particularly periodontal disease) is commonly implicated as a cause of stomatitis in cats. Periodontal disease results from the accumulation of plaque (bacteria) on and around the teeth, which causes inflammation involving the gums and tooth support structures. In many cases, the cause is assumed to be immune mediated, meaning that the cat’s immune system attacks its own oral tissues as an abnormal response to bacteria in the mouth. Because the condition is very painful, initial treatment generally includes giving medication to control pain and inflammation. Antibiotics are also commonly administered. Under the supervision of our Veterinarian we have been trying to treat our kitties with antibiotics, however our vet has indicated we must take the next step to remove their teeth as the only solution to end the constant pain our kitties are experiencing.
