Give Simba a Second Chance

Simba should be spending his days chasing toys, climbing cat trees, and discovering the world—not fighting through a medical emergency.

This tiny kitten was rescued from the streets of South Florida by Cathy's Cats Corporation, where he was struggling to survive on his own. Like so many homeless kittens, Simba had already faced more hardship than any baby animal should ever endure. Then his condition took a frightening turn.

Simba developed a rectal prolapse, a painful and potentially life-threatening condition that required immediate veterinary attention. Over the past two days, he has been rushed to two different veterinary hospitals as his symptoms continued and his rescue team worked tirelessly to get him the specialized care he desperately needed.

Despite everything he's been through, Simba continues to fight with the resilience only a tiny kitten can have. His veterinary team is doing everything possible to stabilize his condition and determine the best course of treatment so he can begin healing. As he continues his recovery, Simba will require ongoing veterinary care, medications, close monitoring, and follow-up visits to give him the best possible chance at a healthy future.

For a small rescue like Cathy's Cats Corporation, unexpected emergencies like Simba's quickly become overwhelming. But turning him away was never an option.

Your donation will help cover Simba's emergency examinations, diagnostics, hospitalization, medications, treatment, and continued medical care as he recovers from this painful condition. Every dollar brings this brave little kitten one step closer to a life where he no longer has to fight just to survive. If you're unable to donate today, sharing Simba's story is another powerful way to help. Every share helps more compassionate people learn about his journey and the lifesaving work being done by Cathy's Cats Corporation.

Simba has already survived life on the streets. With your support, he can overcome this medical crisis and finally experience what every kitten deserves—a life filled with safety, comfort, love, and the chance to simply be a kitten. Thank you for giving Simba hope and for helping Cathy's Cats Corporation continue saying "yes" to animals with nowhere else to turn.

Update 7/14/2026

It's official, Simba had to undergo surgery. 😞 He had to have a surgical procedure on his butt to put everything back where it's supposed to be.

He remains at the vet for post-op recovery and care, and could use every bit of support he can get. Unfortunately, this emergency surgery ran Simba's overall vet costs even higher, and it's now well into the thousands.

Please, if you're able, consider donating to support this little fighter's ongoing medical care. ❤️ We appreciate each and every one of you.
