Onyx Jenkins is a 2 year old Mix-Breed in Arlington , VA, who needs $2,000 for Radius/Ulna Fracture Repair.

Onyx and his sister Luna were last-chance adoptions from PetSmart, and I’ve had them since they were 3 months old. I named him Onyx for the stone’s meaning—strength and resilience. He’s a big, affectionate cat, often called “Mr. O” or “Big O.” He lives with me and Luna, enjoying naps in the sun and watching the world from the window.

On March 19th, Onyx fell from a 6th-floor balcony onto a metal grate, breaking both front paws. His left paw had fractured toe bones and is slowly improving. His right paw suffered far worse—both the radius and ulna snapped in half. He began treatment at VCA and now receives weekly bandage changes, wound care, and infection management at Toebeans & Tails.

Onyx is a sweet, lovable cat with a big personality. He loves bird-watching from the window, mealtime is his favorite part of the day, and he never turns down a treat. He often chases his sister Luna around the house in playful bursts but always ends the day curled up nearby. His gentle nature and silly habits make him a constant source of joy.

The accident was sudden and severe. Since March 19th, I’ve been paying $336 weekly for Onyx’s bandage changes while managing his healing non-surgically, it’s been financially and emotionally hard. X-rays at 8 and 12 weeks confirmed surgery is necessary
