About this campaign

For ten long years, Tom lived in a cat colony, relying on the kindness of two devoted caregivers who made sure he was fed every single day. Over time, this gentle senior began to trust people—coming closer, accepting pets, and showing his big, loving heart.

But when both of his caregivers sadly passed away, Tom was left heartbroken and hungry. Neighbors found him waiting by the door every day, hoping his friends would return with food that never came.

Thankfully, Adopt A Cat Foundation stepped in to make sure Tom would never go hungry again. This sweet boy is now safe at the shelter, where he’s adjusted beautifully. He adores attention from volunteers—and never says no to mealtime!

Now that Tom is finally safe, he needs some extra veterinary care to stay healthy. One of his nails has grown very thick, and the rest have become long with extended quicks, making them difficult and painful to trim without professional help. Tom also needs a full senior exam and bloodwork to ensure there are no hidden health issues after his years outdoors.

Your support will give this loving senior the comfort and care he’s waited his whole life for.

Please help Tom get the vet care he needs to enjoy his golden years pain-free and surrounded by love. Every donation, no matter the size, makes a difference for this sweet old soul.
