Sawyer’s Lifesaving Surgery and Recovery

Donation protected
Hello! If you’re friends with me, you know I’m obsessed with kitties, whether they be mine or others. You may or may not know my friend Katie. Katie is one of the funniest people I know, always there for you to make you smile on a bad day.

On Wednesday, my dear friend Katie’s cat Sawyer unfortunately experienced a urinary blockage, which is fatal if not cleared immediately. The blockage was cleared successfully with a procedure, and Sawyer was sent home for continuing care. However, less than 24 hours later, Sawyer was again unable to urinate. Katie returned with him to the emergency vet and was faced with an impossible decision; have an expensive surgery performed to correct the problem or euthanize Sawyer.

Katie selflessly chose to have the surgery performed to save Sawyer. The prognosis for the surgery is very good, with a high chance of increased quality of life following. He is currently being treated in the hospital, and responding well. He will have the surgery performed on Monday, and hopefully be coming home soon!

The expense for the surgery, as well as hospitalization and the original procedure is immense, and any small donation would help. Thank you for your consideration and loving Katie and Sawyer!
