Thankful Kitten

By Deb Wagner | Grant Writer

Sydney's injured leg
Sydney's injured leg

When a Cat is taken to the local animal shelter, the first thing the shelter does is to try and reunite the pet with their owner. If that fails, the shelter will place the cat in their adoption center. Though the shelter's adoption center successfully finds homes for a lot of them, many cats will run out of time. This is especially true when they are injured as was the case with a cat named Sydney. Gratefully, the shelter contacted New Beginnings Cat Rescue.

Sydney is a sweet 1 year old kitten who was turned in to the local city shelter with her front, left limb broken at the wrist. The break was not a new one, probably a few weeks old and although Sydney was not in pain she did have trouble walking normally. Instead of amputating right away the vet thought the leg could possibly be surgically repaired, saving the limb.  As he said, once you amputate you can't go back, but you can always try saving it first, then amputate later if it does not heal properly.  We agreed to give it a shot.  Unfortunately Sydney's leg did not heal properly and a few weeks later it was determined that the leg needed to be amputated.  After the 2nd surgery, Sydney healed quickly. Her foster describes her this way: “ She is super cute when she bats around toys with the one front leg.” 

New Beginnings Cat Rescue knows how urgent it is to respond quickly and rescue the precious homeless cats. Because of your donations to New Beginnings Cat Rescue, we can continue to rescue kittens like Sydney.

Thank you our loyal financial supporters, for making it possible, year after year, to save the lives of 100s of cats and kittens.
