Kitten Thrown from Moving Car Needs Help
Kitten miraculously survives horrible act of cruelty
I rarely solicit readers beyond asking them to please click the Google Ads of course, but from time to time a really good cause comes along and this kitten’s plight is one of them. Here is the story from the North Shore Animal League:
Recently, North Shore Animal League America rescued Beetle, a 10-week-old, female kitten and placed her in the life-saving Help Me Heal Program. Beetle had been thrown from a moving car window, and as a result, suffered severe injuries. At only one and a half pounds, Beetle has already had one surgery, and she is likely to need another in the future.
Beetle has suffered a protrusion of her abdominal-cavity referred to as inguinal hernia. Parts of her intestines have come through her lower abdomen. This type of hernia requires surgery. In addition, Beetle has a severe fracture of her front left leg. The fracture is very close to the joint and shattered, which will make repairing it particularly challenging. The leg may also require surgery.
Because Beetle is so tiny, her injuries are very delicate and quite serious. Her recovery process will be at least several months, and she will require constant care and monitoring.
You can help Beetle get well. When you support the Help Me Heal Program, you’re helping to ensure that Beetle, and all of the Animal League’s dogs, cats, puppies and kittens get the extensive care they need to be healthy and happy. Please donate today.
Can you find it in your heart to spare a few bucks for little Beetle, the kitten who so so desperately needs your help?
