Nermal was in need of dental surgery desperately, and now we need
help raising the remaining funds!
In 2007, Nermal was rescued from a home with 50+ indoor cats
that were all interbreeding. Through the rescue that I volunteered
for, Nermal came to live with me as a foster kitty - I fell in love
and she adopted me
Our family moved from Alberta to British Columbia, where I took up
volunteering for a new rescue. This year, when Nermal started showing
signs of dental disease, they kindly offered to take Nermal on so we
could get a "rescue rate" at our local, most trusted
veterinarian. The discount was over $600, which was absolutely
amazing... but we still have over $1100 left to pay.
The original bill would have been over $1700, so thankfully we don't
have to raise quite as much now.
Due to a genetic disorder (hip dysplasia), I have been off of
work for nearly a year. In 16 days, I will go in for my second major
surgery to help me walk properly again. I have to travel to a
different city because no orthopedic surgeons on Vancouver Island even
perform the surgeries I need (I am kind of a unique case). My
husband, thankfully, is employed, but with two kids, we barely make
ends meet on his salary.
Nermal is a wonderful cat, who has seen well over 30 foster cats and kittens come through our home (before they were able to be adopted). She is the best cat a family could ask for. Here is a photo of Nermal giving one of the foster kittens a bath:
We desperately need help. Any donations received will go
directly to Nermal's bill.
