We need your help! A little over a year ago, we adopted out the bravest and most handsome little half-blind boy, Murdock! Shortly after going to his adoptive home, Murdock started having urinary tract issues, which led to the vet to do an emergency Perineal Urethrostomy. If you aren’t familiar with the surgery, it is a gnarly one. (They amputate the p***s, and create a new exit for the urethra. These surgeries are one of the most traumatic things you can do to a cats urinary tract system. Sometimes things can go right, but most of the time- things go wrong.) Since the surgery, he has collapsed multiple times, had to have blood transfusions, constant UTIs, no appetite, and terrifying kidney problems. He has almost died a handful of times. The adopters vet told her that he has no quality of life, and there’s nothing further that they can do.
Last week, Mudocks adoptive family surrendered him back to us, and we are trying to figure out what is going on and if there is a cure. This is going to be an extraordinary vet bill, and one that we were not ready to take on. We are getting a different opinion from a different practice & doctor, and running different tests to see what the underlying cause is . We need to know what went wrong.
But like with all of the babies we adopt out, we will always welcome them back with open arms regardless of the circumstances. We will do everything we can to save Murdock, always and forever.
He has been robbed of a joyful and natural life, and we’re ready to give him back as much as we can of what he’s lost.
Please consider purchasing a candle, donating through our website or through our Venmo, or simply just sharing this post. We need all of the help we can get! Murdock is more than deserving of a normal kittenhood. This is not how his life will end.
