Aurora is a 9 year old Russian Blue in Lake Ann, MI, who needs $2,000 for Teeth Extraction (All).

Aurora was less than a year old when her first owner gave her up to my now husband. She was the runt of the litter with the resilience of a puma. She's our girl and keeps our three male cats in check. She's sweet and motherly but also goofy and spontaneous. Aurora is our fur-daughter.

A couple of years ago, we noticed her gums were red, and that's when we learned about feline gingivitis. I brush our cats's teeth regularly and keep them indoors. Our veterinarians at Northwood Animal Hospital in Grawn, MI informed us all her teeth would need to be pulled. She had three pulled last year, but it has become critical now, and she is otherwise so healthy. It's such a shame...

We have four indoor cats and no children. Aurora is our only female. She has been with us for over eight years and has always been healthy and active. Our three male cats love her, and every night, she sleeps under my husband's arm or on my head.

Last year, we spent thousands on our four cats, to include Aurora's dental cleaning and 3 tooth extractions. We can't afford $5600 more dollars to pull all her teeth and can't bear to watch her suffer. I don't know what to do... We are not wealthy, and I used Care Credit.
