Bagheera is a 9 year old American Shorthair in Minotola, NJ, who needs $8,000 for Radical Mandibulectomy.

Bagheera was born on my families farm after his mother and sibling had been left on the family's church steps. (He was in the surprise second litter). Baggy found a loving home with a loving family. Then in 2023 his parents had to move & I was lucky enough to foster him until they found a new home. Sadly his mom developed an allergy which gave me the biggest blessing in my life, Baggaboo.

8 days ago I go to kiss my handsome man under his chin, like I do a million times a day, & there is a solid hard lump. 5mins later I’m on the phone with East Oak Animal Hospital setting up a new patient apt. on the 6th. Bone cancer. By Thursday it’s twice the size, by today it’s grown a third. Monday we are going to Ryan Vet. Hospital. He will need surgery to remove 1/2 of his lower jaw at least.

He is the greatest cuddler. His favorite pillow is my face. We fall asleep check to check all the time. We loves kisses. He will ask for them by pushing his forehead against my lips and holding it there until he says we’re done. The kitchen sink faucet is his best friend. He will hover over me at night & bop my face with his paw (claws always retracted) over & over again for me to turn on the sink

I have been legally disabled since 2018, my husband left me in 2024 & we are in the middle of divorce right now. I don’t know what I would’ve done without Bagheera. Between the divorce we’ve had to move twice in 4 month. But we had each other. He is my everything & my life ❤
