Pearl & Lucy

Pearl and Lucy are battling calicivirus. Will you help?

Oakland, NJ • Ramapo Bergen Animal Refuge

These tiny kittens deserve relief from pain and the chance to grow up knowing love. At just six weeks old, Pearl should be chasing toys, climbing everything in sight, and learning what it means to be a carefree kitten. Instead, she is living with an eye that is painfully infected and damaged beyond repair. When RBARI's veterinary team contacted them about two tiny kittens found outside and shared Pearl's photo, they knew they couldn't turn away. Pearl and her sister, Lucy, are battling calicivirus, which is a viral infection that can be especially dangerous for young kittens, along with eye infections and malnutrition after a difficult start to life. While Lucy's eyes are expected to heal with treatment, Pearl's injury is much more severe. Their road to recovery will include medications, veterinary care, surgery, and follow-up treatment. Every donation helps RBARI provide the care they both need—not only to survive, but to thrive. They are also working to trap, spay, and provide medical care to their feral mom, who heartbreakingly appears to already be pregnant again. Their goal is to break the cycle for this little family. Your support is alwasy greatly appreciated!

Pebbles & Bam Bam

Pebbles and Bam Bam were dumped in a crate behind a Dollar General and possibly left outside for DAYS.

UPPER CHICHESTER, PA • Joyner's Furr-eedom Rescue INC

Pebbles and Bam Bam were severely neglected, painfully matted, emaciated, covered in fleas, sores and blood. Hundreds of roaches had even infested the crate. They were terrified, filthy, and in so much pain that even being touched hurt. Luckily, Joyner's Furr-eedom Rescue saved them from being outside a Dollar General story for what they think was days. Without hesitation, Squeaky Clean Dog Grooming took these two sweet, bonded babies in. They are now clean, comfortable, and safe, but their journey isn't over. They still need veterinary care, nutritious food, and time to fully recover from their ordeal before they're ready for their forever home. But their journey isn't over. They still need veterinary care, food, and continued recovery before they're ready for their forever home. Please consider donating to help Pebbles & Bam Bam get the care they desperately deserve. Every dollar helps turn their heartbreaking beginning into the happy ending they deserve. 🐾❤️

Dior

Every Breath Is a Struggle for Dior

NY, NY • NY Cat Warriors

Dior is a tiny, one-year-old Pomeranian with a huge personality and a dangerously fragile airway. He was found abandoned in poor condition by a senior volunteer with New York Cat Warriors. He had a severely matted coat and was covered in ticks and fleas. But the most frightening problem was something we could hear: a harsh, hoarse cough followed by episodes of gasping and labored breathing. Dior is a happy, affectionate little puppy who wants to play, explore and be close to people. But excitement and stress can make him pant heavily and struggle for air. Ordinary moments that should be joyful can become frightening because his airway cannot reliably remain open. Dior’s preliminary examination, bloodwork and chest X-rays have been completed. The radiology report confirmed collapse of his trachea where it enters his chest, along with collapse affecting some of his smaller airways. His condition also creates additional risk under anesthesia, particularly during recovery. Dior has now been referred to the specialists at the Schwarzman Animal Medical Center for the advanced care he needs, including an anticipated tracheal stent procedure. Estimates for Dior's surgery are exceptionally high. Funding is the obstacle standing between Dior and the specialty care that could allow him to breathe more safely and comfortably. Although New York Cat Warriors is ordinarily a cat rescue, we could not turn away this tiny abandoned dog when he needed help. We are a small, all-volunteer, foster-based organization with limited financial resources, and this balance is more than we can absorb without help. Dior is now safe in foster care with the volunteer who found him. She is seriously considering adopting him once his airway condition has been treated and he is medically cleared. Dior may already have the loving permanent home he deserves but first, we must help him breathe. Please help us raise the money needed to unlock Dior’s procedure. NYCW will remain responsible for his medications, follow-up care and recovery needs as they arise. Every donation will help turn AMC to the Rescue’s extraordinary assistance into the specialty care Dior needs and bring him closer to the secure, happy life that should have been his all along.

Goldfish

Goldfish Needs Two Surgeries for a Second Chance

Milwaukee, WI • Thrifted Kittens Animal Rescue

This happy little kitten nearly lost his life before he ever had the chance to find a family. Goldfish arrived at a local animal control as a stray with significant medical needs. One of his legs ended in a small nub, and he was also suffering from an infected, underdeveloped eye caused by microphthalmia. With no one to take responsibility for the extensive care ahead of him, Goldfish was facing euthanasia. Then Thrifted Kittens Rescue stepped in. Goldfish came into their care on July 1, and at only about 5 months old, he has already needed more medical treatment than most cats experience in a lifetime. His damaged leg continued to be a concern and ultimately required amputation surgery, which Goldfish underwent last week. Now he is preparing for another major procedure. Because his abnormal eye has continued to become infected, Goldfish will undergo an enucleation to have the affected eye removed next week. Two surgeries so close together have created a significant veterinary expense for his rescue, but Goldfish doesn't seem particularly interested in letting any of it slow him down. He is an incredibly happy, social little guy who has never met a stranger. He gets along with the other cats in his foster home, even when they aren't quite as enthusiastic about his friendship, and continues approaching life with the confidence of a kitten who has no idea he is supposed to be different. Soon, Goldfish will be navigating the world with three legs and one eye. For now, though, his focus needs to remain on his medical care and recovery before he can begin searching for a forever home. Donations to Goldfish's campaign will help Thrifted Kittens Rescue with the cost of his leg amputation, upcoming eye removal, and related veterinary care. Goldfish was given a chance when his future looked uncertain. Please consider helping his rescue cover the medical care that is giving this joyful little kitten the opportunity to heal and eventually find the family he deserves.

Hachi

Hachi Was Hit and Left Bleeding, Alone and Hopeless

Pawsitive Sanctuary Inc

Hachi was found lying outside Marriott Hotel, bleeding helplessly on the road after a brutal road accident. He could not understand what had happened to him. He could not understand the speed, the impact, or why his body was suddenly in so much pain. All he knew was fear, blood, and the street beneath him while he waited for someone to notice that he was still alive. Thankfully, someone did though. On Friday, our helpline received the call about Hachi, but before we could even reach him, a kind soul had already stepped in. They did not look away. They did not leave him there to bleed. They took him to a nearby vet for basic treatment while waiting for us to arrive, and that small act of kindness may be the reason Hachi is still here today. When we reached him, our hearts broke. Hachi was badly injured and bleeding from his forehead, ears, and arm. The amount of blood he had lost was frightening. He was weak, scared, and in pain, and without timely help, we could have lost this innocent boy right there on the streets. That is how close it was. Now Hachi is safe, but he is not okay yet. His body is hurting, and his mind is still carrying the trauma of what happened. He needs treatment, wound care, pain medication, antibiotics, monitoring, follow-up care, and time to heal from an accident that could have ended his life. The streets are the only home so many animals know, but they do not understand roads. They do not understand speed. They do not understand that one careless moment can leave them bleeding, broken, and fighting to survive. Hachi was lucky that one person cared enough to stop. Now we need help continuing the care that saved him. Please donate toward Hachi’s treatment today. Every dollar helps cover his emergency care, medications, wound cleaning, pain relief, monitoring, food, and recovery.

Rusty

Please help Rusty through tail amputation surgery.

Hawthorne, NJ • A Pathway to Hope

Rusty was found outside with a devastating injury— his bleeding tail was completely degloved, leaving exposed tissue and causing unimaginable pain. A Pathway to Hope doesn’t know what happened to Rusty or how long he had been surviving this way, but they know for certain that the only treatment is amputation of the damaged portion of his tail. Rusty is feral, and cats like him have so few options when they are injured. There may not be a family waiting at home for him or someone to notice when something is wrong. But Rusty’s pain matters just as much. His life matters just as much. A Pathway to Hope has stepped in to give Rusty the chance he deserves. He will need surgery, pain medication, and veterinary care while he begins to recover. ️ Please help cover Rusty’s emergency medical care. Any amount will help get him through surgery and give this scared boy the best possible chance at healing. Thank you for giving hope to the animals who have nowhere else to turn.
