Nori is a 9-year-old American Shorthair Cat in Elk Grove , CA, who needs $1,876 for VO Othoscopy.

In 2018 I spotted an adorable cat staring at me from a cage desperate for a home, he had been in the shelter TWICE and was older I couldn't leave him there.
I feel in love and he's been my rock through so much, the Camp fire, my mother's death, losing my home and moving. I'm on disability so money is tight this surgery is $$$$ . His eyes are the 1st I see His purr the last sound I hear

it's the 2 of us against the world. he's a lovebug who sleeps in a sunny window,loudly tell me when it's bedtime.and drinks from any array water glass. his eyes win over everyone ! my roomie has a poodle he likes to cuddle and clean its ears.
nori loves to roll on clover outside when I take him out and roars when I don't! right now he's claimed my arm for a pillow.

he will perch atop my chair and just watch me like a statue then pounce on my lap for a neck scratch. if I stop, I get a lovenip!
he's obsessed with his outside time (he's leash trained) which stuns my neighbors and he will stroll about my yard. we've yet to take a long walk, but he's getting there! fresh air makes him happy, wriggling his tiny nose
He us my baby and friend..

Nori is older , age is unknown, guess is @9
We just found that he has a large growth inside his ear which is terrifying. he will need to have anesthesia but his heart murmur is a problem. and his age vet can't tell if it hits the ear canal.A cardiologist has to test if he can have the anesthesia... that is at a different vet, he also has a large wax buildup that needs to come out of other ear!

money is very tight for me. I'm 54 and alone. I'm praying daily for Nori. that this is on his ear canal and I didn't know is horrible . I don't want anything to rupture or harm him.
with my disability my budget is tight. I've paid exam fee, cardio bill, that is another vet.
