About this campaign
Meet Saint--a young male cat, who's estimated to be between 1 and 3 years old. He came into the care of Despurate House Cats Rescue about 2 months ago after being found outdoors. He was unneutered and in need of medical attention. While it's unclear how long he was living outside, it's evident that he was not receiving the care he needed prior to rescue.
After he had his internal medicine consult, the vet discovered a polyp in his airway, making it an extremely delicate location. Due to a high chance of recurrence, he now needs a CT scan to determine the safest and most effective way to remove it. There’s a real possibility that part of his airway may need to be resected, or even that the mass may be inoperable, requiring radiation for complete removal.
Saint has since entered foster care and has truly blossomed. He’s affectionate, social, and adjusting beautifully to indoor life. He loves lounging in sunny spots, playing with toys, and cuddling up to his foster family. It's clear that he is grateful to be safe and loved. What’s most remarkable about Saint is how quickly he bonded with his foster family. It was like he was waiting to be saved.
Despurate House Cats is a small, passionate 501(c)(3) nonprofit rescue, supported 100% by donations from animal lovers like you. Every cat they take in is promised that they’ll never have to struggle alone again; however, the expense Saint has racked up for the rescue has really stretched their funding thing. But of course, he is worth it.
Now, they really need your help to cover the cost of his medical care. His exams, biopsies, leukemia virus/FIV test, injections, antibiotics, surgery supplies, and other vet bills have amounted to approximately $750. Can you please help this rescue give Saint the life he deserves? Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you for your generosity!
