Four years ago, I rescued stitch from heartbreaking situation, were she was neglected, starved and left outside all winter. She was so tiny and couldn't even meow because of the abuse she endured. I brought her home and with the proper care, my long hair russian blue blossomed into a healthy, loving companion who became my rock through the darkest times of my life. When I lost my baby, she never left my side. Last week I came home to stitch collapsed on the floor, barely breathing, drooling, unable to walk. My heart shattered and I rush her to ocean state animal hospital. We learned that she has a growth pressing on her lungs that requires immediate surgery to remove it. Without it, she can't breath properly. The surgery is call lung lobectomy. The hospital is asking for $5,000 to cover her hospitalization, treatment, the surgical procedure. We don't have pet insurance. We don't have those funds available to help her. Stitch save me when I needed her the most. Now I'm desperately asking for help to save her life. Any amount will help us get closer to bring my best friend home and to saving her life. I can't imagine my life without her and I don't want to. Please help us.
