Please help Thumbs spend her golden years indoors.

I've been feeding this adorable calico kitty since July 2025. I started calling her Thumbs once I noticed her big mitten paws. She appeared in my backyard one day and never left.

Thumbs was always a little different. She would flop over and show me her belly when I came home, but she never let me pet her. So I did everything I could from a distance, including building her a heated shelter to get through the winter.

Recently, I noticed she had gained weight but was looking sick. I finally trapped her and got her to the vet. To my surprise, Thumbs is estimated to be around 8 years old. I was devastated thinking about her surviving outside all those years without the comfort of a family.

The vet visit revealed a lot of problems from her years on the street. She has ear mites, stomach issues, and is missing most of her teeth. She's now on medication and recovering in a quiet room in my house. I would love for this to be Thumb’s forever home.

But the vet bills are already adding up, and I know there will be more. My goal is simple: get her healthy and let her live out her senior years as a loved indoor kitty. I've done everything I can on my own. Now I'm just asking for a little help to cover her medical care.

I've attached her vet bill so you can see exactly where the money is going. Thank you for reading about Thumbs. She's already taught me so much about patience and trust. 

Thumbs will be going to Belle Mead Animal Hospital, if you’d like to donate to her care directly please let them know.
