Fatty Boom Boom is the most mellow, huge, lovable Rag Doll Rescue Cat
and he desperately needs surgery to remove his right ear canal due to
numerous tumors before they turn cancerous..
I recently rescued from Euthanasia, a wonderful adult Rag Doll
Kitty I named Fatty Boom Boom from the Hillsborough County Animal
Services in Tampa, FL. He was such a good boy, I kept him. Upon
rescuing him, it was discovered that he has tumors in his ear that are
so bad they have to remove his entire ear canal so they don't spread
or turn cancerous which is highly likely if the surgery doesn't go
forward..According to the vet, he has had severe, chronic ear pain for
YEARS...he holds his right ear down to try and compensate for the
pain. The Vet recommended a very delicate and EXPENSIVE surgery which
involves the total removal of his ear canal costing $1700-1,900.00 for
the surgery alone.
While doing pre-op tests, the Vet thought something looked odd about
his lungs on the x-rays and recommended a separate ultra-sound and a
heartworm test before the surgery. This pre-operative work-up to tell
me this cost $451.00...and then another $551.00 for the ultrasound and
heartworm test. The tests fortunately turned out negative :-) However,
these extra tests excluded any possibility I could pay for his surgery
without assistance.
The Pre-Op work cost almost a $1,000 and there is still his
surgery of approx. $1800 to be paid. This is just too much for me to
afford by myself and therefore Fatty Boom Boom and I are asking for
your generous help so his ear canal with tumors can be removed in time
to save him. He really does deserve it. I've was told by the vet that
these types of tumors turn cancerous at this stage and I don't want to
delay the surgery any longer and want to get him his much needed
surgery so that he can be out of severe ear pain which the vet he has
had for what he thinks is many years before he was dumped at the kill shelter.
