Meet Limon 💛
If you’ve followed our rescue efforts, you might remember Limon, the little guy found crouched in the gutter on Limonite Ave in Jurupa Valley, terrified of the cars speeding by. After a tense chase and some frantic hiding in the bushes, I was finally able to scoop up his grumpy (but adorable) self and get him to safety.
Not knowing exactly what to do next, but already en route to the vet, he came along and it’s a good thing he did.
Limon has been in socalanimalhospital_ ever since. X-rays revealed he has brachial plexus avulsion, a severe form of nerve damage. While some feeling can return in mild cases, his condition is severe and sadly, he still has no function in the limb. That brings us to today: Limon needs an amputation to live a pain-free, mobile, happy life.
We’ve included the surgical estimate and a video (in the comments) showing his current condition.
It’s been an incredibly tough kitten season. While we know we can’t save them all, it’s nearly impossible to turn away from the ones suffering right in front of you, like Limon.
If you’d like to help this sweet boy, here’s how you can donate directly toward his surgery:
📞 SoCal Animal Hospital: (951) 729-6255 (donate directly)
💸 Zelle: (951) 681-9609
🌐 PayPal: room8cats.org
100% of donations will go directly to Limon’s medical care.
As you’ll see in the video, he’s already come such a long way and he's turned into the sweetest, most affectionate little guy. Once he’s healed, he’ll be ready for a forever home. Thank you for caring. 💛
