KITTEN WITH LEAKY LUNGS NEEDS HELP

$890 of $5,000 goal
Given by 16 generous donors in 21 days

Our 7 month old kitten needs funding for urgent and expensive treatment and surgery.

Glendene, Auckland

Fable is a rescue kitten of 7 months old, who has suffered complications from her spay operation. As a result, her lungs or trachea are leaking air into her body under her skin. In just a few hours, our sprightly and silly little goblin has gone from being a demanding princess to a sick and scared little bean. As students, we are currently unable to afford to pay for further treatment after the initial costly scans which can range between 3-4 thousand NZ dollars. We are asking for any donations that can help us give our sweet baby more time with us as we have now fallen in love with this little cute gremlin and don't want to say goodbye.

Story: Fable was rescued at 8 weeks old from an abusive home. Johnathan found her whilst traveling through a small town and brought her home to us. Ever since she has been given the best possible loving home. She had the cat flu, an eye infection, fleas and worms which we got treated by her new vet. When we first got her, she was a shy and silent kitten who slept constantly. Since then, she has become a perky, mischievous and silly clown. She was easy to fall in love with and quickly became a part of our family. Please help us as we do not wish to lose our precious kitten.

Kitten Slowly Deflating  4 July 2023

Hi everyone,

Thank you so much for offering your support and donations towards Fable who has now had most of her air slowly reabsorbed into her over time, though there is still some left.

Kitten unfortunately has been prescribed by the vet lots of rest in her playpen for the next few weeks or until all the air is noticeably gone. However she is getting plenty of cuddles despite this and is eager and active for playtime again. We look forward to being able to give her playtime outside of the pen again soon.

Thank you again to everyone who made a donation.

PS: I have enclosed a photo of Fable looking innocent after she put her mouse toy into her litter box.
