Hello everyone, I am Donato and I started this campaigns to help a community member. Their cat Coco was shot with a .22 rifle and the bullet was imbedded into Coco's spine.
This story has gained a lot of attention because the video going around online clearly shows him being injured and the person that did it.
Coco still has no response to any pain on his back legs. The family of Coco has paid out about $15,000 so far and his care and treatment continues. Please find it in your heart to help this family as every single dollar will help offset these expenses they have endured.
If you cannot donate, that's ok, just please share this campaigns and help this family help Coco walk again and to help cover Coco's care.
So Coco is approximately 11-12 years old. He was around 6 months old when he showed up on the family's front porch one day and just never left. They had lived on the other side of the country at the time. He was always a super sweet and spunky guy, but they learned early that he wasn’t ment to be an indoor only cat. He would eat things that hurt him (3 surgeries to remove foreign bodies from his stomach later) so they let him live his life.
He has been a constant companion and has made many cat and human friends on the block. Everyone knows him and loves him.
They are truly devastated by what happened to him and will continue to try to provide him with everything they can so he can have the best chance at walking again.
Please, donate and share. Thank you.
I will post Coco updates here as well.
