🐾 Help Mr. Scruffles Heal and Find His Forever Home 🏠
Mr. Scruffles was rescued from the streets of Syracuse — scared, in pain, and fighting to survive. He had multiple bite wounds, including one large, infected gash, dental disease, and other challenges. It was heartbreaking to see. From the moment he was taken into foster care, Mr. Scruffles showed his foster that he was one of the sweetest, most affectionate cats. All he wants is to be near people and be loved. Despite the pain he was in, he purred and snuggled to say “thank you!” To give Mr. Scruffles the second chance he deserves, his foster has done everything to get him healthy. He recently has surgery to remove 8 teeth that were causing him pain and the vet also removed a mass found in his mouth (thankfully not cancerous). He’s had multiple antibiotic and steroid injections to fight infection and boost his immune system. After weeks of care, he’s finally on the mend and on the road to finding the perfect forever home.
Mr. Scruffles’ veterinary bills have reached over $2,000, a necessary but steep cost to save his life and relieve his suffering. Mr. Scruffles has endured so much — but his story can have a beautiful ending. With your help, he’ll continue to heal and, most importantly, find the loving home he’s always deserved.
Please donate and share to help Mr. Scruffles continue to get the care he needs. From the bottom of our hearts (and Mr. Scruffles' too) — thank you. 🐾
Any funds received that exceed the amount required to care for this animal while in foster care will be put into our medical fund to assist other animals in foster care with medical needs.
