Lerue

Lerue is a 5 year old American Shorthair in Wyoming , MI, who needs $2,000 for Possible Bladder Stones or Urinary Infection.

Wyoming, MI

Lerue is a guy I took in from the feral colony up the street. He kept following me when I'd walk by and I was worried he'd get hit so started picking him up to take him with me so he didn't follow me across the road and drop him back off on the way back. He tried to follow me home once and I just kept him. He's the oddest cat I've ever met. Very sweet and loves to snuggle me like he's a person. He became ill over the weekend and I'm sure it's urinary in nature. I can barely pay my own bills due to medical issues and major depression and have no extra money for vet visit. He needs to be seen asap so they can start antibiotics if it's an infection. He's sleeping in his litterbox today even tho he's the fussiest about it's cleanliness Lerue is the littermate to Edward another feral from the colony who sought me out a month earlier. Both have been with me for 5 yrs and were about 2 months old when they arrived. In addition I have Meelos who was a rescue and is 10yrs old and I've got a one year old who was abandoned in the neighborhood last year when he was tiny. Lerue is their best friend and playmate I've not been working due to physical illness that's being looked into and possibly malignant and it's taken a huge toll on my mental health. I'm not working and living on a portion of my dad's social security which my mom got when he passed in 2021. Trying for disability

Sophie

Sophie is a 10-month-old Belgian Tervuren in Mount Vernon from , TX, who needs $1,200 for Open Reduction Internal Fixation/Ex Fix.

Mount Vernon, TX

I am a veterinary technician in an emergency hospital. A client came in who's outside-only dog had been hit by a car. The owner was undergoing chemotherapy with a poor prognosis. She couldn't afford treatment for her dog. She begged me to take her, heal her and give her a good home. I tearfully said yes Sophie is only 10 months old and for the first time is sleeping inside a house. The first few nights, she slept on the floor under the Christmas tree. I gave her her very own dog bed, but she didn't seem to understand. After watching my other dogs, she started sleeping on it. Sophie gets along with my other dogs but really worships Mindy. She is learning from her and has to constantly be near her. We are still learning Sophie's personality. She is very eager to learn and please. One time she kept taking ornaments off the tree and bringing them to me. I had a bare spot on the tree and a basket of ornaments on the table. She gets so excited when I come home and when she's with the other dogs. Sophie has a broken leg, right above the carpus and growth plate. It requires pins and an external fixator. The veterinarian has given me a reasonable estimate. She came to me infested with fleas and ticks. I've started her on preventative. Prior to coming to me, she'd never seen a veterinarian before. I will be getting her fully vaccinated and spayed. I lost my job in the summer of 2022 and was unemployed for a few months. My phone and water were shut off for 2 months. I almost lost my house and vehicle. I am working again but my credit is bad & my financial reserves are gone. I want to give Sophie the life she deserves.

Help Sophie Find Relief from Constant Eye Irritation

West Palm Beach, FL • Adopt A Cat Foundation

When Sophie arrived at Adopt a Cat Foundation, it was immediately clear that something wasn't right. This sweet cat had barely settled into rescue when staff noticed her eyes looked abnormal. Concerned that Sophie might be suffering from a painful underlying condition, they arranged for her to be evaluated by a veterinary ophthalmologist. The diagnosis confirmed their fears. Sophie has a condition called distichia, a painful disorder in which abnormal eyelashes grow from glands along the edge of the eyelids. In Sophie's case, the extra lashes are present in both eyes and constantly rub against her corneas every time she blinks. Imagine having tiny hairs scratching the surface of your eyes all day, every day. This condition causes significant irritation, excessive tearing, inflammation, and can eventually lead to painful corneal ulcers and permanent eye damage if left untreated. Although Sophie has likely been living with this discomfort for quite some time, she has remained incredibly sweet and resilient. Fortunately, there is a solution. Sophie's ophthalmologist has recommended a specialized procedure called cryoepilation, which is considered the most effective treatment for permanently removing these abnormal lashes. During the procedure, performed under general anesthesia, a freezing probe is used to destroy the hair follicles responsible for the painful lashes. Once treated, Sophie will finally be able to blink without irritation and enjoy a much more comfortable life. Adopt a Cat Foundation stepped in to give Sophie the chance she deserves, but specialty eye care comes at a significant cost. Your donation will help cover Sophie's ophthalmology procedure, anesthesia, medications, follow-up care, and recovery expenses. Every dollar brings her one step closer to a future free from chronic eye pain and the risk of permanent vision damage. Sophie has already waited far too long for relief. Please consider making a donation today and helping this deserving girl see a brighter, more comfortable future. 7/15/26 Update We have wonderful news to share about sweet Sophie! Thanks to your incredible generosity and support, Sophie has officially undergone her specialized cryosurgery to treat the painful abnormal eyelashes that had been scratching her eyes with every blink. The procedure went well, and she is now recovering safely at Adopt a Cat Foundation under the loving care of our dedicated volunteers. For what was likely a very long time, Sophie lived with constant irritation and discomfort caused by distichia. Every blink brought painful lashes rubbing against the surface of her eyes. Thanks to this surgery, those abnormal hair follicles have been treated, giving Sophie the opportunity to heal and finally experience the comfort she has been missing. Right now, Sophie's days are filled with lots of rest, medications, gentle monitoring, and plenty of love. Our volunteers are making sure she stays comfortable as her eyes recover, and she has been taking everything in stride with the same sweet, gentle personality that captured all of our hearts from the very beginning. While she still has some healing ahead of her and will continue with follow-up care to ensure her eyes are recovering as expected, we are incredibly hopeful that this procedure will give Sophie lasting relief and protect her vision for years to come. Although Sophie is on the road to recovery, her journey isn't over. Her specialized ophthalmology care and surgery resulted in a veterinary bill of more than $1,500, and Adopt a Cat Foundation is still working to raise the funds needed to cover this lifesaving treatment. If you're able, please consider making a donation to help offset Sophie's medical expenses. Every contribution, no matter the size, directly supports her care and allows the rescue to continue saying "yes" to other cats who need specialized treatment. Your kindness gave Sophie the chance to live without constant eye pain, and your continued support will help ensure more cats like her receive the second chance they deserve. 8/8/26 Update Sweet Sophie has had a bit of a setback following her specialized eye surgery. After undergoing her cryosurgery to treat the painful abnormal eyelashes caused by distichia, Sophie unfortunately developed an upper respiratory infection. Her breathing is currently quite sniffly, and she is now receiving daily medications to help her fight the infection and get back to feeling like herself. Thankfully, her dedicated caregivers are keeping a close eye on her and making sure she gets the medication and supportive care she needs. Despite this bump in the road, Sophie is still on her journey toward a more comfortable future. Her eye surgery gave her the chance to finally escape the constant irritation she had endured, and now her caregivers are focused on helping her recover fully. 💜 Please consider donating to help cover Sophie’s ongoing medical care. Her specialized eye procedure cost more than $1,500, and with this unexpected illness, her veterinary expenses continue to grow. Every donation helps Adopt a Cat Foundation provide Sophie with the medications, monitoring, and care she needs to get through this setback. Please keep sweet Sophie in your thoughts and help us cheer her on as she works toward feeling better! 🐾💜

Help Rocco Heal: Injured Kitten Fighting to Save His Sight

White Plains, MD • Paws & Claws Animal Welfare Society Inc.

When Paws & Claws Animal Welfare Society found little Rocco on the streets two days ago, the tiny kitten was in heartbreaking condition. His rescuers immediately knew he needed urgent medical attention and rushed him to the hospital. Rocco's injuries are consistent with significant trauma. His eyes were severely swollen and protruding from their sockets, suggesting that he may have been injured or beaten. He also has a painful bruise on one of his hind legs that is making it difficult for him to walk normally. Despite everything he has been through, Rocco is now safe and receiving the care he desperately needs. He is currently on medications and eye drops to reduce inflammation, protect his injured eyes, and give them the best possible chance to heal. Sadly, his future vision remains uncertain. Rocco is currently blind, and his veterinary team cannot yet determine whether he will regain his sight. They will need to monitor his progress closely as his eyes heal before they can know what his long-term prognosis will be. For such a tiny kitten, this is an overwhelming amount to endure. But Rocco has already shown how strong he is. Instead of being left to suffer alone on the streets, he now has people fighting for him and giving him the chance he deserves. Paws & Claws Animal Welfare Society is committed to giving Rocco every opportunity to heal, but his emergency hospitalization, medications, eye drops, diagnostic testing, and continued veterinary care are creating expenses the rescue desperately needs help covering. Please donate today to help Rocco receive the medical care he needs to heal. Every contribution will help Paws & Claws continue providing this vulnerable kitten with the treatment, comfort, and support he needs while his rescuers wait to see whether his precious sight can be saved. If you're unable to donate, please share Rocco's story. Together, we can help this little survivor recover and give him the safe, loving future he never had on the streets.

Thea

Thea is a 8-month-old Domestic Shorthair Cat in Stanford, CA, who needs $500 for Surgery to Repair Fractured Femur.

Stanford, CA

Thea is a rescue I found abandoned on my college campus, scared, tired, hungry, and thirsty. I took her in 2 months ago and have been nursing her back to health since. She now lives together with me in my studio apartment and has settled in nicely after recovering from her spay surgery. I give Thea free range throughout the apartment because it's overall a bit small. She spends all of her time either sleeping, cuddling up against me (especially when I first get home), playing with or without me, or Her favorite toy is her mouse on a stick. I don't need even need to entice her with it and she'll find ways to simulate hunting it, carrying it away in her mouth when she's succeeded. She chirps whenever she plays--a reflection of her strong hunting instincts---and whenever she's excited, which is most of her waking life. Meows are strictly reserved for when I return after several hours away. I found Thea with a limp that hasn't fully resolved. After finding x-rays and a surgical consultation I could afford, it's now clear that she has a fracture in her femur just above her left knee that still hasn't healed---the bone parts are held together only by scar tissue. Dr. Kimberly Carlson at Lenity Vet in San Mateo, CA gives a good prognosis for corrective surgery. I couldn't help but rescue Thea when I found her, but I am a graduate student within "very low income" limits in my county and this surgery is ~$10,000 in that county. Surgery would give this very active otherwise healthy rescue the best chance at an active, pain-free life.
