Cover emergency veterinary care and euthanasia for an injured feral cat
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
Yesterday we were alerted to this poor ginger boy and his severe injuries. We responded immediately, but the storm made searching difficult. Despite returning early this morning, we couldn't find him. This afternoon, Michelle Coleman contacted us after finding him and keeping an eye on him. We rushed there and found him lying in a yard. The owner kindly allowed us access. He was starving but unable to eat. He slowly approached Madelize van Zyl, even though he was feral, allowing her to gently stroke him. We quickly prepared a cage and managed to catch him. Seeing his suffering, we couldn't wait until tomorrow and arranged an emergency after-hours consultation. Thank you, Dr Michelle at Evander Dierekliniek, for helping us after hours. π His jaw was completely broken, misaligned and causing immense pain. The decision was made to end his suffering. Thank you to everyone who helped and sent messages of support. Rest in peace, sweet boy. π You mattered, right until the very end. π
