Boots is a 2-year-old Tabby in Hubert, NC, who needs $1,500 for Sepsis treatment resulting from trauma; leg amputation; anorexia.

Boots has been in our life since she was 8 weeks old. She is probably the sweetest cat that has ever existed. She is now 2 and is fighting for her life. She has always been a free spirit and roamed from one neighbors house to the next, everyone loved Boots. We had to sell our home and move to an RV park. While there’s many more trees, there are also more “not so cat-friendly” animals.

My three-year old and Boots share the same birthday, personality, and bed!! She walks around the house daily yelling “Boots, where are yooooouuuu?” Now that she is at the 24 hour hospital it is heartbreaking to tell her Boots is not home. She is so used to having her to cuddle at night and so sad that she is not there for bedtime. We just want to bring Boots back to her and our little family!

Boots will force her live on you, whether you like cats or not. She begins with a soft meow, if you don’t pick her up she will jump up and proceed to crawl up to your neck purring louder than any other cat you’ve heard. She will rub her head on your chin until you just give in and love her back. She has always been this way. Even after her attack she purred all the way to the emergency vet.

Boots has went to three different hospitals: Swansboro ER, Riverbank animal hsptl, and now she is at Points East in Wilson, NC for 24hr care for 2-3 days. She was critical last night and going septic. She is now stable and doing much better, her liver quants even improved. She does have to have a blood transfusion and there may be an added surgery if pooling is occurring at the amputation incision

Boots can live a long and healthy life with proper treatment. We have exhausted all of our funds at the end of her recovery and just need help getting through sepsis to bring her home. We paid $7000 in four days utilizing every resource we could and are facing $2000+ more.
