Imagine a condition where the soft tissues in your mouth become irritated and inflamed to the point where you can no longer eat. That is stomatitis - and unfortunately for Old Man, his mouth is in so much pain from stomatitis that he has stopped eating. We have started Old Man on steroids and pain/anti-inflammatory meds in order to stabilize the stomatitis, but that will only buy us a short time.
Old Man is one of the sweetest, most loving and easy-going kitties you will ever come across. Old Man's story is a sad one. He was dumped in a very crowded rural shelter with little chance of getting out because of his age. Once we were told about Old Man and his awesome personality, we knew that we wanted to help. It wasn't until he came into our care that we found out that Old Man was suffering from this painful condition of stomatitis.
The good news is that with our help, Old Man can get better. Unfortunately, it is going to be an expensive path. If everyone chips in a little bit, we can do it! Old Man needs dental x-rays, blood work, a full mouth extraction as well as medication. We refuse to give up until this boy is out of pain, and we need your help to fundraise for this large, unexpected expense! If you met Old Man, you would see he is worth every single penny. There is not a sweeter, more loving cat out there. Please help us get him the treatment he so greatly deserves.
