Moss is a 9 year old Mix-Breed in Sandy Hook, CT, who needs $10,000 for Emergency Care for Chest Trauma & Lung Infection.

Moss is an approximately 10-year-old retired tomcat stray who has lived on the streets of the Bronx for most of his life. (he was dumped on the street after his initial family did not neuter him) I have provided regular food, water, shelter, and had him neutered. I named him Moss because he’s a strong, and resilient. If he recovers, he will transition to a safe indoor home.

Moss is hospitalized at Guardian Veterinary Specialists after being found vomiting, lethargic, and weak. He was diagnosed with a broken sternum, severe chest infection with pus in his lungs, blood in the lungs, and a punctured lung. He has been hospitalized for one week and is recovering, but his blood pressure remains unstable as he continues to fight. He is not giving up so neither are we!

Moss is special because of his quiet resilience and gentle nature. Though he lived on the streets, he formed trust over time and showed affection in his own way by staying close, following routines, and seeking safety nearby. His strength and will to survive are remarkable.

Moss’s emergency care is costing $20,000. A rescue group is doing everything they can to save him, but they cannot cover the bill. I need him to recover so he can retire from the streets and finally know the love, safety, and comfort of an indoor home and family.
