About this campaign

Calypso is a 3-month-old kitten who was found with a severe degloving injury to her tail. This traumatic injury left the tissue exposed and caused significant pain and risk of infection. After veterinary evaluation, it was determined that a partial tail amputation was necessary to relieve her pain and give her the best chance at a full recovery.

During the same procedure, Calypso was also spayed to prevent future unwanted litters and support long-term health.

Despite everything she has endured, Calypso remains a sweet, loving kitten who enjoys attention and is already recovering well in foster care. Once healed, she will be available for adoption through South Carolina Community Cat Project.

We are seeking assistance to help cover the cost of her tail amputation surgery, spay procedure, medications, and follow-up care. As a foster-based rescue, unexpected medical cases like Calypso’s quickly strain our resources.

Any support for Calypso’s care will help give this resilient little kitten the healthy future she deserves while allowing us to continue helping other cats in need.

6/11/26 Update

Thanks to your kindness and support, Calypso has successfully undergone her partial tail amputation surgery and spay procedure.

Her veterinary team was able to remove the damaged portion of her tail, clean the injury thoroughly, and get her on the path to recovery. She is now resting comfortably in foster care, where she is receiving pain medication, monitoring, and lots of love.

Calypso is healing beautifully. Her incision sites are looking good, her appetite is strong, and her playful personality is already starting to shine through again. Most importantly, she is no longer in the constant pain caused by the degloving injury.

Once her recovery is complete, Calypso will be available for adoption through South Carolina Community Cat Project, where she will have the chance to find a safe and loving forever home.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who donated, shared, and supported her fundraiser. Your generosity helped cover her surgery, spay, medications, and follow-up care, and it made this happy outcome possible.

Thank you for helping Calypso get the fresh start she deserved.
