Medical Emergency Fund for Vinny

This sweet, courageous cat found himself trapped in a hunting snare. It’s heartbreaking to think of the fear and pain that Vinny endured when the trap snapped down on his little limb.

Vinny was severely wounded, with his paw swollen and bloody. The injury quickly became infected, causing damage to the surrounding skin and tissue. The pain must have been unbearable for this sweet boy, yet he continued to purr through it all. His dedicated veterinary team has been working tirelessly to clean his injury, manage his pain, and control the infection ravaging his little paw. X-rays, daily wound dressings, and soothing Epsom salt soaks are now part of Vinny’s routine. While his care team remains hopeful, it’s clear he will need at least a partial amputation to give him the best chance at recovery.

Vinny loves nothing more than rolling onto his back so you can give him belly rubs. His “cone of shame” and bandaged, broken paw won’t stop this kitty from getting the love he demands and so deserves! The beautiful tuxedo boy’s gentle spirit and strength are a strong reminder that love and kindness can heal even the deepest wounds. Will you extend your kindness to Vinny today and give him the chance to purr, play, and live without pain?

Personal updates for Vinny will be provided to anyone who donates towards his care.

*Goal includes: Wound debridement and care, recheck appointments, x-rays, amputation, medications, neuter surgery and daily care for Vinny until he is ready for adoption. If funds raised go above and beyond the needs of Vinny, your kind gift will help the next animal who needs urgent medical care.
