Socks is a 5-year-old Mix in Slater, MO, who needs $1,200 for a tooth extraction.

It's kinda a funny story socks became mine and I became his. Because he adopted me not the other way around. One day I opened my door and here comes a gray cat that I've never seen and comes inside my house and every day he would come in my house for longer and longer than wouldn't go home and now we can't live without each other.

I live by myself and have no other pets. I am on the third year of recover and am a loner and have nothing but a t.v and four walls and have been at a cross road of what my purpose and here's shows up this cute kitten just strolling in takes look at me and mewed and that was rap, I knew my purpose, it was sock.

My sockies talent is being a lover boy. He loves his loving and will happily take them all day long, when we go to sleep he curls into my neck and curl up and I can squeeze him and he just loves it. I do have a cat that snuggles better than a dog. His meows I call them cry babies meow because their just so pitiful. I love them to death.

For the last four month I been paying for pain meds and shots that were cheaper than the tooth extraction I couldn't afford. But they quite working and the vet said tooth is just that bad and unfortunately it's time to have it pulled and I went straight home and started fundraising. Socks vets office is called The Veterinary Health Center and his vet extracting the tooth is Dr. Ulery.

I am on disability and make a set amount of money and have no other means and its not life threatening so I'll always have a income. I gladly make enough to pay for his needs and to even give him goodies, yay! Socks is my babies and can't live without him. He truly has my heart.
