Earbud is a 3 month old Mix-Breed in shakopee, MN, who needs $2,000 for Tail Amputation.

Oct 27 out bike riding searching for lost headphones. Along a thick wooded area, I heard LOUD shrieks and cries from the tiniest kitten. She came running out brushing up against my legs. She was injured. She scarfed down food and loved the safety of a carrier. She got the name Earbud, the reason I heard her screams. She has her very own room to play in. I have two other cats she has yet to meet.

Marschall Road Animal Hospital Dr. Glieden told me her tail was sliced vertically down to bone, entire tail. The trauma most likely cut off blood flow. A tail amputation is required by a specialist due to trauma being so close to butt end of tail where so many of the nerves are in her spinal cord. Earbud started a medication regimen to begin her healing process in preparation for surgery.

Earbud is the sweetest kitten ever! Purrs and talks up a storm. Excited to see you. She is vibrant with life. Playing, chasing toys, loving her circle cat toy, scratching her cat tower, zipping through the bedroom with the kitty crazies, and taking all her meds like a champ! She would be a wonderful companion to my youngest cat Pawsie who has always wanted a cuddly buddy to snuggle and play with.

Tail amputation surgery cost is 2,500. I didn’t plan for a sweet, little lovable bundle to bust into my life. The unexpected cost is a lot to bear. I am a single income household. This is a life-saving surgery for Earbud and doesn’t end after the initial surgery cost.
