Magic was found with bandage and bloody paw |
In Miami, the homeless cat crisis is a heartbreaking reality that many of us in the community have witnessed firsthand. On this National Giving Tuesday, we're calling on you to join us in making a difference.
Just recently, we rescued a little black kitten we named Magic. He is dehydrated and has an injured paw, and it was a homeless person who first found him and tried to help by putting on a makeshift gauze bandage. Thanks to his kindness and alerting us, we were able to step in and rescue Magic, but he still needs X-rays and further care. An estimate of the bill from Dec 2, 2024 is below.
This November, we took in a white cat who was found alone after his owner passed away. Tragically, he suddenly fell ill, and we rushed him to the vet. No doubt the sudden loss of his guardian, being in a strange new environment is stressful for Bobo. His diagnostics are at least another $900. The bills just keep avalanching.
Bobo is in shock at the vet clinic surrounded by strangers. His owner passed away. |
These are recent events apart from our daily care of the Riverfront community cats. We lead by example. Education is vital and that we do for free, guiding other residents on how to care for rescued cats and kittens. It takes a village. But rescue work takes exorbitant time and monies. Veterinary costs have skyrocketed. It really takes a village.
Your donation can help us continue these vital services, providing food, medical care, and shelter for Miami's homeless cats. Please consider making a donation, no amount is too small. Or even a small monthly donation. Remember, our workers are all volunteers. All monies goes to cat care.
