This sweet little 16 week old kitten has used up a few of his nine lives! Toast fell FIVE stories from the window of a home and miraculously survived. But the little monkey, must have landed on his side because his leg and hip suffered severe damage. Even though he was in incredible pain, Toast would still try and limp over to get a cuddle with any human nearby.
Tough little Toast is on careful cage rest while his pain is being managed with medication. He will require an extensive FHO surgery to repair his hip and leg, which means his vet will need to remove the ball part of the “ball and socket” area of his leg, leaving just an empty socket. Not to worry though -- over time scar tissue will form to provide cushioning that is referred to as a “false joint”.
Toast’s recovery will be slow and tough, since he’s still just a young kitten who wants to play and run around! He doesn’t love having to take it easy, but this surgery is the best possible chance he has at walking normally again.
Toast has such a great personality and even with the trauma he has experienced, he purrs non stop. He is always eager for cuddles and a good chin rub. This sweet kitten needs your support, will you help Toast get through this tough time?
Personal updates for Toast will be provided to anyone who donates to his campaign.
*Goal includes: surgery, medication, treatment, regular health check, and daily care for Toast until he’s ready for adoption. If his medical costs and cost of care is less than is raised in his name, additional funds will provide care for other animals.
