Hermione and Harry Potter are 5 year old Mix-Breeds in West Hartford, CT, who need $1,000 for Ringworm Care and Full Vetting.

Harry Potter and littermate Hermione were friendly cats dumped into a feral cat colony in Hartford, fed by caring feeders. It became evident recently that Harry Potter's nose wound was bloody, infected, spreading and worsening fast. If he didn't get medical care, he wasn't going to make it. Marla's Community Medical Fund for strays at Connecticut Veterinary Center got right to fundraising to cover his care: he had a severe bacterial infection that was cultured to determine what bacteria it was, and to rule out cancer; and he was also anemic. While the vet sedated him to address his wounds, he was neutered, SNAP tested and fully vetted.

He made a good recovery, but unfortunately, once he entered his rescue, he was exposed to Parvo. He was brought right back into the vet's office for medical boarding and observation, and a distemper booster. Costs mounted again quickly. During the observation period, Harry tested positive for Parvo and had developed diarrhea. Thankfully, his symptoms didn't worsen; diarrhea responded to Metronidazole, and over time resolved. Simultaneously, rescuers thought Hermione may have had Ringworm. She was brought i through Marla's fund to rule this out (thankfully), but slide-based cultures were costly. While there she had all her vetting except spay, as she wasn't fully done nursing. Harry is fully recovered, his nose has healed; Hermione just got spayed and is recovering. But their balance remains. Funds are needed to pay down the balance leftover from Harry Potter's extended and unexpected vet stay & Hermione's spay, distemper booster, and overnight recovery at the vet.
