Want to join me in making a difference? I'm raising money to benefit The Little Cats' Rescue, Inc., and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.
Why do we have a dog at a cat rescue, you might wonder. TyTy was rescued along with his mom and six siblings at the tender age of two months. She was used as a breeder, and she escaped with her pups. She was spotted by our founder's sister, who was vsiting from out of state, as Mama herded the babies across a very busy road. Long story short, TyTy came to our Sanctuary at seven months old. The person who adopted him was neglectful and abusive to him. We received a call from him saying that he would kill the dog if we didn't take him. (this person left TyTy leashed to a tree in an unfenced yyard, where he chewed through the leash and ran the neighborhood. He was locked in a bathroom all night long, and was hit and fed raw pork chops.) We took him, and he has been such a blessing! He had a horrific case of diarrhea and multiple skin issues when he arrived. We slept out on the screened porch until he could be acclimated to the cats. That didn't take long! TyTy loves people and he loves his kitties! He trains them to be able to be adopted into a home with a large dog.
TyTy has a torn ACL and requires surgery. We've already tried laser therapy and glucosamine injections, for a cost of $750 - but there has been no improvement. We've now been given an estimate of:
Consultation with Dr. Hay: $185; X-rays: $500; Surgery: $4,200.
So, who is The Little Cats' Rescue, Inc.? We are an all-volunteer sanctuary for abandoned, abused and at-risk cats. We have been rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming cats here in the tri-county area since 2001. Thousands of cats have been rescued from dire circumstances, including impending death. They were lovingly cared for and prepared for their own forever homes. Those that are not adopted are promised life-long care at our Sanctuary, where they live uncaged in a home environment. TyTy has given so much to the kitties and we desperately want to get him the help he needs to live a painfree, mobile life. TyTy will be 11 years old on June 15th. Won't you please help us to help him?
