Pickles is a 1-year-old Domestic Long Hair in Jacksonville, NC, who needs $550 for aural hematoma.

My pet came into my life because he was a friend of mine. They had a very unclean home and he was very malnourished. I took him in, in hopes of helping him grow and have a better life. Which I have. Unfortunately the last month or two I’ve been busy moving and waiting to start a new job so I haven’t had any funding to help pay any medical bills

My cat loves everyone. He doesn’t like other cats at first just because it’s his house and he doesn’t understand why there is another cat. But he loved my dog who unfortunately passed away the 1st of the new year. With this I honestly think he’s become a little lonely. He loves to play and sleep

The last month I’ve been moving into a new house and waiting to start a new job. I have already been hired but waiting for them to give me a date for orientation. So I’ve been without financial support, I feel terrible

About a month ago now he started forming what looked like a rash. At the time I took him to an emergency vet because he was not moving and he was using the bathroom on himself constantly. They told me it was because he was chewing due to fleas. I took him to a check up with a regular vet the following day. We treated the fleas and also gave him pain medication and an antibiotic.

He makes me laugh and smile everyday. Just looking at him makes my whole day better. He has one toy he loves which is a cat nip filled banana. He always kicks it with his back feet while chewing on it. It’s the funniest thing. He has a few other toys he likes to play with. He likes to pick them up with his nails and throw them in the air.
