Chuck is a 2 year old Mix-Breed in Knoxville, TN, who needs $6,000 for Hospitalization, Diagnostic, and Scope.

Chuck was adopted through a local rescue by us two years ago. Him and his brother beef are what got us started and involved in fostering. We adopted them as kittens and fell in love with rescue, and decided we wanted to help as best we could.

Chuck started showing signs of respiratory distress on sunday 5-17-2026. In the past 24 hours, hehas rapidly declined. He was seen at riverside veterinary clinic as well as university of Tennessee emergency veterinary. He has undergone a scope, x rays, and diagnostic testing today. After being sent home from riverside this afternoon, chuck started declining again.

Chuck is special to us because he was our baby before having our first human baby. Him and his brother are the first pets that moved into our home with us. He helped welcome our son. He is the house ambassador. If you know the spina family, you know Chuck. He is the friendliest, most loving cat I have ever had.

We were told that we may need specialized care to address chucks needs. At this point we have addressed many sicknesses and ruled out a bunch. We are still at a stand still as to what is wrong. We have stumped our regular vet, and currently have no choice but to hospitalize
