Meet Jenga

The sweet 1.5-year-old calico cat was found with a gunshot wound to her tail that was left untreated for some time, resulting in it becoming infected. 

Her tail was partially degloved and mostly necrotic. She was taken in by an animal rescue in Georgia who brought her to a vet for treatment options.

After examining her tail and prescribing antibiotics and pain meds, the vet said the only option is to amputate her tail. 

Jenga has had a rough life, but with your support that is about to change.

The friendly feline enjoys being around people, despite what she has been through, and deserves a second chance to find a loving home. 

Her surgery is scheduled but the rescue needs help covering her medical bills and recovery costs.

Click to Help James

James and his blind brother, William, were found abandoned on the street when they were just four weeks old. James was born with one blind eye that started to cause him discomfort. Over time, that eye became increasingly painful and irritated. James is the seeing-eye cat for his brother, making his condition even more urgent to treat.
