Lily is a 7-year-old Mixed Tabby in Baltimore, MD, who needs $2,000 for removal of all teeth due to Tooth Resorption Disease.

Lily & her daughter, Monica, lived with my brother & his fiance at the time. They split up & my brother took them. Unfortunately, where he moved to he could not have cats. He asked me to take them. We are a huge cat lover family. I had just lost my 19 year old cat and had one other. I lost another one a year before that who was 12. I welcomed them both in to my family with open arms. I needed it.

Lily is my love bug. She loves to lay on my lap. She loves her belly rubs & will take them whenever and wherever she can. Lily's daughter, Monica was just put down 3 months ago from kidney failure. We fought hard but there was nothing we could do for her. Lily missed her terribly. Lily has 4 other playmates to keep her happy now. A kitten we took in, 14yr old rescue and 2 feral kittens rescued.

I am only 47 years old & I'm disabled. I only get $529/month in disability. It took 2 years to get that. My family helped me with Monica's vet bills which were over a $1,000. They are tapped out. I NEED HELP. I don't want my baby to suffer because I do not have the money.

I noticed that Lily's bottom canine tooth was missing. I then began to notice she was having problems eating. Took her to our general vet, Dr. Jay at Abbey Animal Hospital. She was diagnosed with Tooth Resorption. It was so bad she was referred to Animal Dental Center. Dr. Tjepkema told me it is so bad all her teeth need to be removed & that she is so nice considering she has to be in severe pain.

Lily went through the death of my Rocky, who was 18 years old when he passed, and her daughter Monica. She took both hard but soon a new family emerged with 4 new friends. Lily loves to play with them. She loves to chase her tail in the bath tub and she loves her laser pointer. She gets very excited when her monthly Kitnip box gets delivered. She is like a child on Christmas. So excited.
