Meet Alex The Amputee Saved by Furry Friends Foundation Cat
Alex is a very affectionate and curious cat who was sadly going to be put down at SEEACA due to a leg injury. His right rear limb was severely swollen. We rescued him from the shelter and took him to a clinic that specializes in surgery, where they determined that he had an old infection that had compromised the muscle tissue beyond the ability to heal. Unfortunately, the only option was amputation. This poor guy suffered for a long time, as infections can be very painful. Thankfully, he is now with a foster home during his recovery, and we hope that soon, someone will choose to adopt a cat like him through the Furry Friends Foundation or other cat rescue organizations in Los Angeles.
