UPDATE: I’m sorry but I was misinformed about Montana.
He has not passed away and I will get a further update later.
6/20/22 – Unfortunately, it was a very sad weekend for 3 fur orphans (2 of whom we’ve helped with medical). It was early June when we were contacted about Jeffrey who had been rescued in Detroit. He had an abscess on his neck and was filled with fluid. The fluid was drained and we were asked if we could help with the medical bill. We did that and Jeffrey’s prognosis appeared to be good but not long after, Jeffrey became very lethargic. We approved another visit to one of our veterinary partners and Jeffrey was found to be positive for FIV, FeLV, and possibly FIP. He continued to get worse and it was finally recommended by the veterinary doctor that Jeffrey be spared from any more pain.
And then, there was Skippy (no photo). We didn’t know him but I got a call yesterday from a friend of 4p1h about a cat who was found and appeared to have been hit by a car. At first he tried running away and then he couldn’t move. He was bloody and the finder couldn’t tell the extent of his injuries. I authorized him to be taken to the emergency hospital. He had a severe wound in his stomach and although he tried to move, his brain couldn’t seem to dictate his limbs. He had many other injuries and the doctor recommended humane euthanasia to relieve him of his pain.
We try to save them all but sometimes it’s not possible. – diana
