Onyx
Onyx was the very last cat rescued from a heartbreaking animal hoarding situation. Will you help?
west Wyoming, PA • Baby Jacks Rescue
Meet Onyx. The home he came from was so unsafe, it was set to be condemned. While the other cats were rescued, Onyx was too terrified to come out of hiding. He had been living deep inside the heating ductwork, and rescuers from Baby Jack's Rescue had to cut a hole in the ducts just to reach him. Onyx and four other cats from the home became known as the “Fab Five.” Once he was safe, healthy, and fully vetted, Onyx was adopted—but his new home lasted only eight days. The trauma from his past had left him with severe PTSD, and he was simply too frightened to adjust. He returned to foster care, where he will now remain permanently. Despite his fear, there is a loving boy hiding beneath the trauma. During the quiet hours of the night, when the world finally feels safe, Onyx comes out to purr, rub against his foster mom’s face, and soak up the affection he has learned to trust. Now, this sweet 8-year-old boy needs help once again. Years of dental issues have progressed to the point that Onyx needs a full-mouth extraction, with an estimated cost of $1,800–$2,300. His foster has already paid for his pre-surgical bloodwork and put down a $900 deposit to secure his surgery. Their goal is to raise at least $1,800 to help give Onyx a pain-free future. After everything he has survived, he deserves to finally feel safe—and comfortable—in the home where he will be loved for the rest of his life. Please consider donating to help Onyx get the care he desperately needs. Every dollar, no matter the amount, will make a difference for this brave boy.
