Tessa is a 3-year-old Short Hair Domestic Cat in Taylorsville, NC, who needs $650 for Incision Dehiscence and Hernia.

Tessa Mae Whovier Bryant showed up to our house about six months after moving in. She roamed around until winter came and she became an inside cat and wonderful part of the family.

Tessa is a daddy's girl and loves to talk and have conversations with you. She loves to nap on her window hammock and took care of her 19 years old dog sibling by walking beside her to protect her from bumping into things and checking on her while she slept.

Tessa loves Christmas and is named after Marth May Whovier from The Grinch! She is super friendly and loves to greet anyone who comes by. She is picky kitty that won't eat food crumbs nor anything tuna!

Tessa had an pregnancy that resulted in an emergency C-section. Everything was going well until her incision started to split and she developed a hernia. She had to have a second emergency surgery to fix the hernia and the affected tissue from the incision splitting. She is being treated at All Hearts Animal Hospital in Hickory, NC by Dr. Jenna Moe.

Having two emergency surgeries has left us completely wiped out financially. Myself and my husband are both have disabilities restricting in the amount we are able to work. Tessa is the cat that made us cat lovers. She changed the game for us and she has our whole hearts.
