Help King Overcome His Urgent Health Crisis

Please help us raise funds for a much-needed surgery for our beloved cat, King— blue-eyed, lovable, 4-year-old, zig-zag walking Snowshoe.

When King came into Hart 2 Heart Animal Rescue in April 2021, we soon discovered that King has mild cerebellar hypoplasia (CH), commonly known as Wobbly Cat Syndrome. We watched him as he walked in circles and ran in straight lines, never quite sure which direction he would go, but enjoying life nonetheless!

King is a snuggle bug and a lover of all people and animals. He brings such joy and truly loves life but that life is now being threatened repeatedly by obstructions in his bladder.

Things changed for King on December 23, 2024. He was posturing as if he needed to go to the bathroom, his front and back private parts were red and his stomach was convulsing, resembling dry heaving.

We immediately took King to Urgent Care, where we were informed that his bladder was the size of a baseball and that he was unable to urinate due to a urinary obstruction, requiring emergency care. He was assessed and underwent surgery to relieve the obstruction in his bladder.

Things initially looked promising, and he stayed there for two days for care and monitored evaluation. However, on December 25, his bladder had become re-obstructed, and he required a second surgery. King came home on December 27, but he is still not out of the woods. He will need another surgery, a perineal urethrostomy, in the coming week to help prevent future urinary blockages.

We urgently need help to provide King with the life-saving surgery he desperately requires. It is heartbreaking to see him suffer and we want to ensure he receives the veterinary care he deserves.
