Genevieve nearly died after suffering horrific trauma. Now, she's fighting for her life.

A good Samaritan discovered her on the side of the road and was shocked at the extent of her injuries.

Genevieve's tail was "degloved." Her skin and fur were ripped from the muscle around her tail, leaving it bare, open, and exposed.

She suffered a blow to her head so severe it caused severe damage to her left eye. Genevieve was in shock from all the pain.

The person who saved her connected with Saving Hope Animal Rescue, which raced Genevieve to the animal hospital.

Her medical team was unsure if she'd make it. They immediately started Genevieve on an IV of fluids, antibiotics, and pain medication and put her on heat support. Once the doctors monitored her, they said she had a chance.

Now, Genevieve needs urgent surgery to amputate her tail and additional treatment for her eye.

"Degloving is one of the most painful things a cat can experience," Devan Kate S., with Saving Hope, tells Waggle. "We are prepared to fight for this sweet girl."

Please give so Genevieve gets a second chance at life!
