Pooka - Feline Respiratory Virus
Donation protected
We need your help!
A family recently asked that we take care of their cat (Pooka, seen pictured) since they were no longer able to care for it. Unfortunately, we discovered shortly after that this cat had Feline Calicivirus (FCV) which is highly contagious and it spread rapidly to our other nine(!) cats in our shelter!
According to the Wikipedia link above, symptoms of FCV include "fever, conjunctivitis, nasal discharge, sneezing, and ulceration of the mouth (stomatitis). Pneumonia may develop with secondary bacterial infections''. Picture below:
We managed to get Pooka into the vet and take care of her the treatment and medications necessary to get her on the road to recovery... but we still have nine cats to get taken care of as soon as possible!
The care for Pooka came out to a total of $96.22, which times nine is roughly a total of $870. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
