About this campaign
Meet Hiccup, a 4-month-old kitten who came into our care fighting to breathe.
After a vet visit, we learned he has a diaphragmatic hernia—a condition where organs have moved into the chest, leaving little room for the lungs to grow.
The good news? Surgery can save his life.
The hard part? The cost.
We couldn’t turn away a kitten who deserves a full life, warm naps, and a future. With your help, we can give hiccup the chance to breathe easy—and grow up safe, loved, and strong.
Please, consider supporting Hiccup's VERY deserving second chance. This boy deserves the world—and together, WE can give it to him.
3/21/26 Update
We’re so happy to share the final update on little Hiccup — and it’s the best news possible. Hiccup had his surgery to repair his diaphragmatic hernia, and we’re thrilled to report that he has recovered well. After coming into care struggling to breathe, this brave 4-month-old kitten now has the space his lungs needed to grow and function normally.
The procedure was a critical step in giving Hiccup a future, and he handled it like a champion. Since surgery, he has been healing beautifully — breathing comfortably, regaining his strength, and beginning to enjoy life the way a playful kitten should. Warm naps, gentle cuddles, and curious exploration are now part of his daily routine.
This life-saving outcome would not have been possible without the support of everyone who donated, shared, and believed in Hiccup’s second chance. Your compassion helped cover the cost of surgery and gave him the opportunity to grow up safe, healthy, and loved.
Because of you, Hiccup is no longer fighting for each breath — he’s simply living, thriving, and looking forward to a bright future.
Thank you for helping give this deserving little boy the world.
