About this campaign

These tiny kittens deserve relief from pain and the chance to grow up knowing love. 

At just six weeks old, Pearl should be chasing toys, climbing everything in sight, and learning what it means to be a carefree kitten.  Instead, she is living with an eye that is painfully infected and damaged beyond repair.

When RBARI's veterinary team contacted them about two tiny kittens found outside and shared Pearl's photo, they knew they couldn't turn away. 

Pearl and her sister, Lucy, are battling calicivirus, which is a viral infection that can be especially dangerous for young kittens, along with eye infections and malnutrition after a difficult start to life.  While Lucy's eyes are expected to heal with treatment, Pearl's injury is much more severe. 

Their road to recovery will include medications, veterinary care, surgery, and follow-up treatment. Every donation helps RBARI provide the care they both need—not only to survive, but to thrive. 

They are also working to trap, spay, and provide medical care to their feral mom, who heartbreakingly appears to already be pregnant again.  Their goal is to break the cycle for this little family.

Your support is alwasy greatly appreciated! 

If funds raised exceed Waggle's goal for this featured pet, Waggle will use the surplus to help other animals in catastrophic situations and support our mission to end economic euthanasia.
