About this campaign

My grandson names him Reaper when his wife found this tiny, scorched paws, tuxedo little kitten next to the tire of her car. She nursed him with store bought bottles and kitty formula. I took over after a few months and couldn't help but call him baby. I got him vaccinated and neutered and joined him in with my house of 4 other cats.

He had the most wonderful demeanor he was loving and playful, he soon made a best friend of my neighbors kitten. He was having such a joyful life. 2021 was such a happy time for him, then, out of nowhere my neighbors kitten disappeared. It was heartbreaking. Baby looked for his buddy for months. He became so lonely.

Then in April 2022 he devastatingly fractured his growth plate in his hip, he needed an FHO which is partial removal of his left upper femur. I loved him so much by then I went into debt to pay for the surgery and drove him all the way to Orlando for this. The next couple of months I nursed him through this gave him physical therapy.

He rebounded and I once again saw that sweet kitten I met months earlier. Now comes July 2022 he gets given another horrible blow a urinary tract infection. Vet bills again. He suffers through and seems to be on the mend when the UTI returns with critical outcome. He's in a life or death crossroads. He needs hospitalized and serious medical intervention 4300 dollars worth. He is at C. A. R. E

Still in debt from his FHO earlier this year I again choose to go into further debt so little life can continue. I cried so hard I did not want him to be euthanized because I had no money, please anything will help.
