Echo was recently adopted from a rescue organization. Echo appeared to be a healthy 9-month-old female kitten. She had been spayed and was up to date on her vaccinations.

Upon further examination, Echoβs mom found a hole in Echoβs side.

T-Rex The Cat
T-Rex, a handsome tuxedo kitty from Minnesota, has been battling a stubborn bladder stone for several months. Despite medications and following a prescription diet designed to dissolve bladder stones, T-Rex stone has grown, causing him discomfort, and it puts him at a higher risk for a life-threatening urethral obstruction.
Nugget The Dog
Nugget, a little pup from North Carolina, suffered a serious injury while out for a walk with her mom and furry companion. Without warning, Nugget leaped off the curb and into the path of an oncoming car. The car accidentally clipped Nugget's leg, causing her to yelp in pain. Her mom quickly pulled her back onto the sidewalk, but Nugget had sustained a significant injury to her leg.
Cloud The Cat
Cloud was born in a garage; his mom was a feral kitty who disappeared shortly after giving birth. Cloud entered the world with a twisted leg and quickly developed an eye infection, leaving him weak and struggling to survive. Fortunately, a compassionate animal lover welcomed Cloud and his siblings into her home, and they all thrived.
Mano The Cat
A freakish accident has left this little kitten with a fractured hip. Full of kitten energy, Mano was zooming around the house when his dad noticed him suddenly start limping. The following day, Mano continued to avoid putting weight on his right back leg. His dad rushed him to a local low-cost animal clinic where x-rays confirmed that his hip is fractured and needs to be surgically repaired.
Jersey The Cat
Jersey, a 10-year-old Vermont kitty, is in excellent health overall, except for some bad teeth that need extracting. His elderly parents, living on social security and disability benefits, cannot afford the estimated cost of the surgery, ranging from $1,100.87 to $1,544.56 depending on the number of teeth needing extraction.
Asher The Cat
Asher is an 8-year-old kitty from Iowa; he was recently diagnosed with Traumatic avulsion to the upper and lower right molars. This means that his teeth have become completely displaced from their bony socket. The two molars need to be removed as soon as possible to prevent his gums from becoming infected.
Gerty The Cat
Gerty was a stray; for unknown circumstances, this sweetheart was on the streets fending for herself. Luckily, a kind animal lover took Gerty in. Gerty was very friendly and must have been someone's pet at one time. Recently, Gertyβs mom noticed that she was frequenting the litter box often.
Plato The Cat
Meet Plato, a gorgeous Florida kitty who loves nothing more than a warm cuddle and a sunny windowsill. Lately, however, Plato hasn't been himself. A painful condition called stomatitis has made it difficult for him to eat, causing a foul odor in his mouth and leaving him feeling miserable.

Hunter Cole is a beloved family member and service animal to a Veteran amputee. Unfortunately, Hunter has developed a Mass Cell tumor on his tail, and his veterinarian recommends amputating the tail to ensure that the cancer does not spread.
Muffin The Cat
Beautiful Muffin, a beloved furry companion, has faced a series of health challenges recently, including recurring urinary tract infections despite being on a prescribed urinary diet. The distressing symptoms of peeing blood and severe constipation have resurfaced, prompting the need for another round of antibiotics and stool softeners to alleviate her discomfort.
