Sebastian Baker Wolf is a 7.5-year-old DSH Brown Tabby in Tacoma, WA, who needs $795 for Xrays to dx respiratory condition, surgery to remove mast cell tumor.

Sebastian Baker Wolf - Wolfie - came into my life as a foster cat in August of 2021. He was thin, depressed, and frightened. He had a diagnosis of Feline Hemotrophic Mycoplasmosis, but he also had respiratory issues and I discovered a small cluster of lumps under his left ear. Attempts to have these issues addressed with the shelter failed, so long story short, I adopted him.

Wolfie has made great strides from being a fearful creature who hid in the shadows most of the time to becoming the brave cuddle bug is now. He isn't thin any more - in fact, he's a little bit chubby, oops - and he gets along fine with his pigeon brother Theo. He loves the ladder and the window sill, red dot, and string toys. (He does not care about catnip or boxes.)

Wolfie's personality blooms a little more each day. I thought he might always be painfully shy, but now he treats me to daily headbonks and purring cuddles. He has a nice bunch of adoring fans on Instagram who applaud his progress, and this has been wonderful. Maybe the funniest thing he does is sit on top of the cat/pigeon ladder and make himself into funny bread dough shapes every day.

Wolfie was in bad shape when someone dropped him off at the shelter last June. At about 7 years old he wasn't neutered. He was very thin and had FHM, which seems to have cleared. He's had ear infections and a hard time with fleas, which we finally got under control. He will be getting x-rays to diagnose his respiratory problems and we await a surgery date to remove his mast cell tumor.

I'm on a fixed income. I try to cover as much as I possibly can from my own budget, but occasionally a vet bill is bigger than I can handle. Wolfie has never been in the best of health. I'm hoping that will change soon!
