March, 2023: One of the programs we help is Keeping Cats in Home at Cat Adoption Team. So far this year they have helped 14 cats stay in the homes they know and love. Here is one such story: “Treble had what appeared to be a minor eye infection, but instead it became a painful, chronic issue. His owner Karen had spent over $1,000 on his medical care when she learned Treble needed to have his eye completely removed. There was cartilage out of place, necrotic tissue, and an ocular ulcer too! But the cost of surgery simply wasn’t in Karen’s budget. Afraid she wouldn’t be able to keep Treble and give him the care he needed, Karen reached to Cat Adoption Team (CAT) for advice. Instead of taking Treble in, fixing him up, and then trying to find him a new home, CAT was able to provide the surgery at no cost to Karen through their Keeping Cats in Homes fund! Generous donors like Jamie Brianna’s Legacy Fund make this program possible, and that means keeping more pets and people together! Today, Treble is now healed up at home with the person he knows and loves best. We are so happy for Karen and Treble to have this happily ever after!” This is a double happy tail, because being a black cat (and with one eye), Treble would have had an extra hard time finding a new home.
