zzz-giveBIG 2023 Update – May 2, 2pm

As of 2 pm we have raised $7,800 in support of our foster programs and our amazing foster families, which will allow us to take the very best care of kitties like Moby and Poppo, for as long as they need us.

Poppo

Meet Moby & Poppo

Moby, a Domestic Medium Hair Black and White Tuxedo, came to MEOW by transfer from Yakima.  He had severe stomatitis (inflammation of the mucous membrane of the mouth) and had to have full mouth extractions, surgically removing all 30 of his teeth. 

Having come from a large feral colony, he was very lonely recovering in a foster home. To cheer him up,  Moby was introduced to his now best friend, Poppo, who also was in foster care. 

Poppo, a DLH black cat transferred to MEOW from Ellensburg, at times exhibited labored breathing when playing.  Diagnostic radiographs, bloodwork and an electrocardiogram, all returned normal findings.

He then saw an Internal Medicine Specialist who treated him for a lower airway infection and bronchitis/asthma. He improved. In time, Poppo has been weaned off his medication and his exercise is slowly being increased. So far he is doing well. 

As is often the case when cats come to us less than 100%, with little or no history, it takes time to diagnose their issues, determine the appropriate treatment, and then care for them while they recover.

Moby and Poppo have spent just over a year in foster care, receiving lots of love, all the treatments they’ve needed, and plenty of time to heal, all the while strengthening their brotherly bond. Today, Moby and Poppo are ready for their forever family, together.

We can be there for them because you are there for them!
