Hobbes is a 3-year-old Domestic Shorthair Cat in Middletown, CT, who needs $2,000 for Bladder Stones Surgery.

I got Hobbes from another family who could no longer care for him. He is my little buddy and sleeps next to me on my pillow every night. I have had him for about 3 years. He is a beautiful little orange bundle of joy and I can't imagine life without him. He loves to hang out on the bed and watch television with me.

Hobbes loves to watch squirrels from the bedroom window and chase flies. He loves his little football toy and his stuffed platypus and stuffed pig. He is beautiful and orange and friendly and I love waking up every morning and seeing his little face. He loves the peaceful atmosphere in my home. I love him so very much.

Hobbes loves meeting all my friends when they come to the house. He loves his treats and eats them off of my desk. He must have his treats twice a day and will loudly demand them if he does not get them. He loves my old cat Loki and the two of them will cuddle together when I am at work. He is really the best.

Hobbes has some bladder stones which require surgery. He had a chronic blockage which has been fixed but he will require surgery to remove the stones from his bladder. I just want my little boy to be okay because he is so very special to me. I hope and pray that I do not lose him because I love him so very much.

This was an unexpected and major expense. I own my home and live alone and must deal with all of my household expenses. I have already paid over $3000 to remove the urinary blockage but the surgery will be another $4000.
