At Community Cat Crew, we only euthanize when it is medically necessary. We never make that decision based on age, adoptability, FeLV/FIV status, or even extensive medical needs. When an animal requires more care than we can provide alone, we reach out to our community or partner rescues for support.
Gizmo’s story is a perfect example of why this mission matters. She came to us as a transfer from Ionia County under circumstances that were, honestly, pretty confusing. We were able to locate her original owner, but due to her condition and the lack of medical care she had received, we decided that staying with us was truly in her best interest.
Gizmo, at 12 years old, arrived blind, violently vomiting, intact, with severe dental disease, and with bloodwork that was all over the place.
Without diving too deep into the medical weeds, here’s the good news:
Her bloodwork has stabilized.
She received a much-needed dental.
And she has now been spayed.
As a 12-year-old intact female who was still going into heat, Gizmo’s uterus was full of cysts. Since her dental, her foster reports that the vomiting has stopped. Yay for getting all that bacteria out of her mouth!
Ya girl is thriving!
