About this campaign

*New Life Cat Rescue*

Artie was found unable to walk and dragging his back legs, crying for help. New Life Cat Rescue was contacted by a bystander who knew this poor thing needed immediate help.

Knowing something was seriously wrong, New Life Cat Rescue rushed him to the vet. They discovered he had a massive urinary blockage and crystals in his bladder. The vet pulled 300ml of urine out and was shocked his bladder hadn't ruptured.

Despite being in immense pain, Artie's disposition remained loving and sweet throughout everything. He was even showing off his biscuit making skills while getting a catheter!!

Artie is scheduled for additional diagnostics such as x-rays and bloodwork and has a long journey ahead to a full recovery. New Life Cat Rescue is committed to making sure he gets back to full health. Please consider donating to help make this possible.

Update:
Artie is making INCREDIBLE progress! He is doing great at his underwater treadmill therapy and his mobility is getting better every day. Artie even startled his foster mom by jumping onto a cat tree! He is getting stronger every day and no longer needs weekly appointments but has now graduated to chiropractic adjustments every 3 weeks.
