Help Our Beloved Cat Zokni Heal

Donation protected
Hello, we are the Bruwer family.

In 2020, we welcomed a beautiful tuxedo cat into our home and hearts. We named him Zokni, which means "Socks"—a perfect name for a fluffy boy with four identical white paws. Zokni is a much-loved member of our family, full of personality and charm. Each night, he makes his rounds, choosing whose legs to sleep on, adding a touch of joy and comfort to our evenings.

Zokni shares our home with an older cat brother and a spirited dog sister. While he’s not always sure what to make of her, they often play and chase each other, usually ending with the dog getting a gentle slap!

This morning, Zokni gave us a terrible scare by jumping from an upstairs window. Thankfully, we found him quickly—frightened and hiding in the front garden. A visit to the vet and some x-rays confirmed our fears: Zokni has three fractures in his foot. Sadly, the type of injury he has will likely require surgery and metal pins to heal properly, with a total cost estimated at £2,700.

Our pet insurance will only cover £1,000, and we’re now facing a difficult decision. There is a more conservative, non-surgical option involving splints, bandages, and regular check-ups, which would allow Zokni to come home and recover gradually. This treatment would still cost up to £1000. However, surgery offers the best chance for a full recovery—and we would love to give him that chance.

If you are able to help in any way, even the smallest contribution would mean the world to us. We’re hoping to raise enough to give Zokni the best possible care and comfort during this painful time.

Thank you so much for your kindness and support.

With love and gratitude,
The Bruwer Family & Zokni the Tuxedo Cat

Update-
Zokni needed to have another sedation and re bandage his leg, as he took the first bandage off. Next week check up again, for repeat x ray. The vet team is positive with his progress for now, he wont have the micro-pin -surgery. Your kind donation goes a long way to the bills, and we are very grateful xxx
