Fur Kids Foundation 2018 Success Story: Alex

Cats may not really have nine lives, but they do get into and out of some pretty unusual situations. Like Alex here. He’s a 4-year-old cat who is his human sister's best friend. So you can likely imagine the heart ache they were experiencing when they found Alex hanging from the top of the fence, his leg stuck in between the posts. His family feared that Alex had a broken leg.

Alex’s mom is a single mom, who had a terrible choice to make: bringing Alex to the vet or pay their house payment. She didn't like that choice, especially since Alex very clearly needed to be seen, so she applied to Fur Kids Foundation for help.

Luckily, Alex did not break his leg and escaped with a few lacerations and was sent home with pain meds and some antibiotics. Let's hope Alex learns his lesson from this.
