Willow is a 3 year old American Shorthair in Fremont, CA, who needs $7,000 for Repair of the Hip and Tibia with Surgery.

Willow was named after our elementary school mascot. We found him abandoned in a cardboard box in the front of our school office. Once we removed him from the box we realized he was injured. He could not put weight on one of his rear legs. We knew we had to help him.

We rushed him to Mission Valley Vet and had X-rays done. Unfortunately the x rays revealed not only a fractured tibia but a fractured hip as well. The Vet then told us that an orthopedic surgeon would be needed and the estimated cost for surgery would be at a minimum of 7000 dollars. We left the office in tears and feeling defeated.

Willow is the absolute sweetest kitten I have ever met. He snuggles in and purrs when picked up. It breaks my heart to think about how much pain he must be in. We fell in love within the first moments we found him. He deserves to live a long healthy life.

We have six cats at home and recently just paid for 4 kittens that appeared in our yard to be spayed and neutered. We just feared that we could not afford these high costs for Willow’s care. I knew I had to reach out for help.
