Louie is a 6-year-old mix in San Antonio, TX, who needs $1,215 for dental surgery.

Louie's mom was a feral that showed up. She had 4 kittens and I fell for Louie. The mom got fixed and lived outside for 6 yrs. Even at 6 weeks Louie had the cutest personality! Louie has 1 litter mate that belongs to my granddaughter, his sister Nala. Louie lives with just me and his sibling. He is most often sleeping at my feet or beside me.

As you can see Louie is quite the character. If I'm not up by 9am he wakes me up! He will paw my head or step on my c-pap turning it off. Louie loves everyone and they love him! Friends, neighbors, anyone who visits, even the vet tech. Well until they drew blood. He will let his much smaller sibling bully him. If he hears a kitten cry on tv he meows for it.

I'm 60 and disabled so I don't get out much. Louie is my only companion 28 days out of the month. He's the only bright spot in my life! When I'm down he sits with me or does something so cute! He makes me smile. Even people that don't like cats like Louie.

Mr. Louie had crystals when he was young. He gets wet food twice a day. He's always been healthy until now. He was fat Louie but started to lose weight and wasn't being himself. I took him to Alamo Dog and Cat Hospital. He has bad teeth and an infection. They gave him shots but he needs dental surgery.

He makes everyone smile! He rubs up against you and looks up with big eyes. He's a character that does harmless things, like messing with my coupons, tearing up paper. He has tried to use a doorknob to open the bathroom door. He will look out the window and growl at the mailman. He alerts me when he hears someone outside. He's my companion, friend, one who makes me enjoy life alone.
