<div>Meet <strong>Sophia</strong> — a 12‑week‑old tuxedo kitten with the sweetest spirit despite everything she’s been through. She was found in a sewer behind the Food Lion on Godwin Blvd., scared, injured, and desperately needing help. We believe she may have been seeking warmth inside a car engine and was severely burned when the vehicle started.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Sophia’s back right leg is broken, infected, and badly burned. She is currently under the care of Nansemond Veterinary Clinic, receiving pain medication and supportive treatment. As of 01/09/2026, her surgery is on hold while the infection is treated. Once the infection clears and she is medically stable, her amputation will be scheduled with Nansemond Vet Clinic. She has a long road to recovery ahead.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Despite her trauma, Sophia remains incredibly gentle, loving, and docile. She adores people, gets along well with other animals, and has a sunny disposition that shines through even now.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are asking for help to cover her medical expenses so she can receive the care she needs and have a chance at a healthy, happy life. <strong>Any contribution — big or small — will make a meaningful difference for this brave little kitten.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Thank you for helping Sophia heal.</strong>
</div>
