ARDEN, N.C. (FOX Carolina) – A kitten rescue in western North Carolina helps a tiny kitten on an enormous restoration journey.
When Esther Neonatal Kitten Alliance took in 7-week-old Tommy, the brown-striped kitten was unable to make use of his again legs. An x-ray revealed he had been shot with a BB gun and one of many pellets remains to be in his physique.
Tommy has to make use of a diaper and the rescue stated it’s unlikely that he’ll regain mobility. He can also be afraid of people after the abuse he suffered, hissing and growling out of worry.
“Our primary focus is on Tommy’s well-being and providing him with a loving environment where he can heal both mentally and physically,” stated Andee Bingham, Founder and Director of Esther Neonatal Kitten Alliance. “Tommy’s resilience and courage are truly inspiring, and we are honored to be a part of his journey.”
Esther Neonatal Kitten Alliance is asking for assist from the neighborhood to help Tommy’s automotive. Donations will be made on-line or by mail to 21 Pond Street, Arden, NC 28704. Donations made on-line by Dec. 31 might be matched, in line with the rescue.
The nonprofit offers care to new child and medically-challenged kittens with the purpose of giving the young, sick and injured an opportunity to thrive. This yr, 85 p.c of the animals taken in by Esther Neonatal Kitten Alliance had been critically injured, critically ailing or too young to be weaned once they arrived.
“We are deeply grateful for the outpouring of love and support we have received so far,” Bingham stated. “Together, we can show Tommy that humans can be friends. We can give him the chance to experience the kindness and compassion he deserves.”
