Kitty is a 5-month-old Cat in Afton, NY, who needs $1,000 for Enucleation Surgery.

Kitty came to us at the end of September. Kitty was sitting with my dog and my dog was accidentally “run over” by a computer chair wheel and he snapped around. My dog’s tooth caught Kitty’s head and it cost me $800 to treat it two weeks ago. This unexpectedly has caused the muscle above eye to give out and now her eye needs to be removed surgically. I don’t have enough room for the entire story.

Kitty and my two 9 year old dogs just love each other. I’ve had them since they were tiny pups and it was time to bring in a friend for them. Kitty and my 18 month old son are on the same level mentally and interact like I’ve never seen a cat do before. My older 2 children love her, and my husband has developed a deep fondness of her.

Kitty loves to give kisses and she will snuggle right up to your face and tap your cheek with her paw, just to say she loves you. She loves getting into the playpen with my son and they chase each other around the living room all day. Kitty runs like a madman and does parkour between the furniture, even hanging upside down sometimes!

Kitty had her wound above her eye cleaned and had been on antibiotics for two weeks. Her other eye was bruised from the incident and the vet prescribed Clavamox orally, eye ointment and Gabapentin for pain. We then went to a different hospital for an estimate for eye removal. The first ophthalmologist we saw has since recommended the same, but at higher costs.

I had an accident at the beginning of September requiring two weeks hospitalization and surgery. I cannot return to work until the end of December. I have 3 young children at home and minimal money coming in. Christmas is around the corner, but Kitty will come first.
