Yesterday was a very eventful day at the vet.
Vinny was rescued after desperately trying to get indoors for help. He arrived extremely thin, covered in ticks, and losing a significant amount of hair. Out of an abundance of caution, diagnostics were performed and we are currently waiting on results. He also has the start of a mild upper respiratory infection.
Oat, a 7 week old kitten who has been in our care with his mom and siblings since they were just 3 weeks old, suffered a full a**l prolapse that required surgical repair.
Lastly, Big Red, a neighborhood feral cat we’ve been trying to help since winter, was finally trapped so he could receive much needed care. He had severe matting across his back that could only be relieved through humane trapping and shaving.
Cases like these are why rescue work matters so much, but they also come with significant veterinary expenses. Please consider donating toward their care. ❤️
