Meet Dabby; he’s a 1-year-old domestic short-hair cat, and his mom’s “Love Bug.” This poor baby was experiencing some worrisome symptoms–he wasn’t as energetic as he usually is (lethargic), he had a lot of goop in his eyes and a lump the size of an egg on his neck. Dabby’s mom is in between jobs and didn’t have the money available to take him to the veterinarian, so she applied to Fur Kids Foundation for help with the emergency veterinary care. At the vet, it turned out Dabby was experiencing an allergic reaction to something in the home and his immune system was doing its job by fighting it off. If you didn’t know, cats, like humans, can develop allergies as they age. According to Cats.com, signs that your cat may be suffering from allergies can include:
Dabby was able to go home with his mom and she is working on what he could have gotten into that made him react so. Because of your support, FKF was able to assist so this little guy could get into the vet; we’re happy that he’s feeling better. No matter what is happening with your fur kid, at any stage of life, Fur Kids Foundation encourages you to call your veterinarian sooner rather than later. Fur Kids Foundation is 100% run by dedicated volunteers who give their time to help the Foundation raise money with events, take applications, and spread the word about the good work the Foundation does in Campbell County, Wyoming. If you would like to help Fur Kids Foundation continue to help local families with animals afford emergency veterinary care, please consider making a tax-deductible donation via PayPal or signing up to become a volunteer.
