Grand Vinnie is a sweet rescue (Munchkin like look at those short legs).  He was found by a good samaritan hunkered down near a building in January 2021, scared and cold, he is nothing but a gentle boy, who deserves the best we can do for him, though apparantly his original home didn't think that way.  This boy is a loving cat who still enjoys playing and being with the foster home no matter if all this has been his lot!
As the foster home alludes to he has been quite the "trainwreck" - so many things wrong with him.
He's got glaucoma and finally had to remove one eye, with continued treatment of the other, had ringworm (and seizures due to allergy to ringworm medicine!), He's got a damaged ear (likely injury), we've also had to treat for earmites (prior time also might have caused ear damage), and UTIs.
And NOW he has to have a double FHO to cure hip issues as he has bone on bone contact for both rear joints. Oh and did I mention he's cryptorchid, we'll do that neuter at the same time.
This is all quite an expensive boy of age unknown!  But it is what we do in rescue!  And he is a good patient which is really helpful also with all we've had to do!

UPDATE summer 2022
We appreciate all the donors who help us out with Grand Vinnie!
His Double FHO was a huge suscess, just look at the you tube video!  He is happy and playing and running like never before, after recovery and some physical therapy.  He did also have to have a dental when he recently broke a canine tooth, as it was hollow another genetic issue is suspected.  Good news his Glaucoma and UTI are well controlled.  He is a real trouper this boy.
