Saving Cat the cat

$240 donated
Given by 15 generous donors in 5 weeks

We were lovingly adopted by a beautiful black cat who has now been diagnosed with a bladder blockage and life threatening kidney failure.

Canterbury

During February 2016 my partner and I moved into a new house. Much to our surprise a beautiful black cat decided we would be a loving family who would look after him.

A few months later and this loving and playful cat has suddenly turned ill. Later this afternoon I took him to the vet to find out he has a blocked bladder and his life is endanger unless we remove the blockage immediately. Despite this cat being a stray , we feel the need to care for and do our best to help him and in doing so have handed over a significant amount of money his life to be saved , which we were more than willing to do. Unfortunately this was all my savings and the further costs that are accumulating are getting beyond our ability to pay !

Any donations made to Cats cause will be directed to the vets who have been working tirelessly over the last 3 days to care for him

I will be providing all receipts of veterinary care for Cat in the updates section.

if anything was left we will be directing this onto the SPCA or a similar animal care outfit ensuring the lives of more animals are saved !

I have now taken responsibility for his care and will require some help to ensure his life is saved. Hopefully Cat will not sustain any kidney damage and will be able to return home soon.
