Sherman is a 9 Year Old American Shorthair in Kennesaw, GA, Who Needs $2,000 for Blood Transfusion.

We adopted Sherman 9 years ago after the loss of a cat to cancer. We got him as a kitten just 2 months before my youngest daughter was born, and they have grown up together. He has always been cuddly and spicy and loves my three daughters so much. He is social and sweet and so handsome!

Over the spring Sherman started getting sick and began to loose weight. Multiple trips to the vet later, we are still trying to get a definitive diagnosis, but he’s getting worse and is now severely anemic and underweight. We are now at a specialist and our sweet boy needs a blood transfusion. Possibly surgery too depending on the test results on his abdomen.

Sherman is a talker, an attention seeker, and a cuddler (when he’s feeling good). My three daughters have such a beautiful and special love for him. We are all so heartbroken watching him decline.

We live in a 4 generation household, and we simply can’t afford thousands of dollars in vet bills.. but we also don’t want to loose our precious boy at only 9 years old! We just lost another cat about a month ago, very unexpectedly, and we can’t handle the loss of another.
