Hades is a 2 year old American Shorthair in Clinton, IN, who needs $2,200 for Arm Amputation.

5/22: IF WE RAISE $1200, HADES LIVES. Surgery TODAY or euthanasia. Waggle pays vet directly.

Hades turns 2 on Sunday 5-24-2026. I got him as a newborn kitten the day he was born his mother Athena went missing when he was 3 months old and was never seen again. Hades is all gray, I think part Blue Russian. During the day outside he’s always running, but at night inside he won’t leave me alone. He has an older brother Kratos, 4 y/o, missing an eye he lost protecting Hades from a dog.

Hades was shot, shattering his right humerus. On 5/18 PetCare Animal Hospital took X-rays confirming amputation needed. Surgery is Thursday 5/22 & costs $2200 upfront. I have MetLife insurance covering 80% after $250 deductible but vet won’t bill direct. Denied CareCredit, Scratch Pay, AllPets due to job loss & low credit, Without surgery I must euthanize.

Hades all gray, probably part Blue Russian. Outside he’s wild & I can’t catch him, but inside at night he won’t leave me alone. He sleeps with me. His older brother Kratos lost an eye protecting him from a dog when Hades was a kitten. Even shot & in pain, Hades came to me last night & laid with me instead of hiding. He’s stubborn, loyal, & he’s family. In dark times now & can't do it without him

Was out of work for over a year & had to live on credit cards, and shot my credit. Back working now. I have about $200 saved for Hades’ surgery but was denied CareCredit, Scratch Pay, AllPets Card & others. MetLife reimburses 80% after, but I can’t cover $2200 upfront.
