Greyson is a 12-year-old domestic short hair in LOS ANGELES, CA, who needs $438 for stay cat wellness check before adoption.

Greyson is a 12-year-old stray cat. He has been wandering around our neighborhood with a lame leg since a little kitten. During these years, as a community stray, a few neighbors fed him. I am one of them and the only one who has consistently fed him for about 6-7 years. He has a special part in my heart.

As a senior cat with a lame leg, letting him live on the streets would be really cruel. I decided to adopt him and gave him a forever home for the rest of his life. He is a sweet boy really deserves a lot of love after having a rough life for more than 12 years. I am looking forward to cuddling him every day. No more homeless for Greyson.

In the past 6-7 years, Greyson showed up on my stairsteps on daily basis. I have had a special bond with him. If I didn't see him in a couple of days, I would search for him everywhere in our community to make sure he was OK. After eating, he would like to rest on my doorsteps and enjoy the sunshine. It's a beautiful scene you would never be tired to see. He has been part of my life.

About two weeks ago, he showed up with a big mass on his face and refused to eat. Our neighbor worked with a rescue group that provides minimal emergency care. They fixed him and gave him some antibiotics. They also told me that Greyson could not go back outside anymore based on his condition. The vet suggested putting him down if he would be released on the street again.

In order to save Greyson from being put down, I have decided to adopt him. I took him to my vet and got him tested and made sure having all the necessary vaccine shots. It cost more than 400 dollars. I already have two cats and two dogs. These costs are a big burden for me.
