It's and Pterodactyl needs a little love and a big dental! Pterodactyl, a young polydactyl (extra toes!) domestic shorthair cat, came to us as a stray and gave birth to three kittens on the very same day she arrived! She headed off to foster, where she did a fantastic job raising her little dinosaurs. All three kittens have since found their forever homes, and now it's Mama's turn to get some much-needed attention!
Unfortunately, Pterodactyl has severe stomatitis, a painful inflammatory condition affecting the mouth, and she needs substantial dental care. Although her permanent tongue blep is enduring, it's because she has severe medical mouth needs. This isn't a routine cleaning or a quick fix. Her dental will need to be performed off-site by a veterinary provider with the equipment and setup necessary to handle a case like hers.
The estimated cost? Around $2,000. Donate via Facebook or her Givebutter campaign: https://givebutter.com/pterodactyls-dental-i0f797
Pterodactyl is still a young cat, and quite possibly the sweetest cat on the planet! She's spent her time in our care looking after her babies, and now it's our turn to look after her.
