Thank you so much for your generous donation to the Petfinder Foundation's Emergency Medical Fund! Your gift is helping pets get out of shelters and into loving homes. Pets like Pewter, a blind, formerly feral cat.
Rescued from the streets of Oakland, California, Pewter was in terrible pain, his eyes nearly destroyed by infection. Our grant to Feral Change helped fund the surgery he needed to live a pain-free life.
He recovered perfectly, and his dedicated foster mom helped him learn to navigate life as an indoor (and now completely blind) cat. With lots of time - and treats - Pewter learned to trust and accept affection from humans.
According to his foster mom, Pewter transformed from “ultra-fierce to an extra-melty cuddly boy.” Now adopted, he spends time wrestling with his cat brother Tofu, taking baths in front of the fireplace, and purring up a storm.
Thank you, from all of us at the Petfinder Foundation, for helping Pewter and thousands of other deserving pets get the Happy Tails they deserve. To meet more pets helped by donations like yours, please visit us online.
