Amazie (Amazing Grace) is an 8-year-old Tabby in Santa Monica, CA, who needs $1,500 for excising fungus with a necrotic center on her right, hind leg.

Yes, my darling Amazie was a rescue who's been with me now for her full 8 years! (born on St. Valentine's Day). She's such a precious little being in my life and her first few months were spent saying good-bye to my beloved black lab Boo! who was 16 years old when she left us. Since then Amazie and I have been very loving, close companions

There are no 'family members' to tell you about since I'm 90 years old and the only surviving member of my family of origen, was widowed in 2012 from my beloved of 12 years; and i have a foster-daughter in Toronto. But I do have a few friends...(the last close one died in 2019)...and a tenant, all of whom adore Amazie!

Oh my goodness! Amazie is so special this form isn't long enough to count the ways! She's very smart, loves to kiss you as if she were a dog, but also likes to add little nips or love bites to finish you off! Once when I was in the hospital for a minor operation; when I came home after a week, she hid under the bed and didn't coe out for almost a full day! She's very alert and has become wise.

I've been giving her a daily dose of a liquid medicine for a year now...called Fungol, and in the beginning all the lumps and bumps receded but a month ago her right hind leg lump grew larger and burst! After the vet did a minor surgery on her the leg was back to normal size but now a month later, her leg has blown up again! And the vet says I need a specialist.. Our appt. is on December 31st.

I'm a senior on fixed income and I already spent $500.00 on the first minor surgery. Now I'm looking at a possible $3000.00 expense. I hope it won't be an amputation...please God!
