Story
Hi, I am Gary the ginger tabby cat.
I am 10 months old and I bring joy to everyone around me, even from as far as America via Facebook. I have even made a lovely lady called Maggie, who had cancer(but has sadly passed away now) smile, from my silly antics like pulling up the neighbours carrots and eating them. They were delicious.
However i now need an operation on my back leg/hip. I went out to play last saturday night and hurt myself and went missing for 3 days. I managed to find my way back home and was taken straight to the vets as i couldn't walk properly.
The vet x-rayed my leg and found out I have a bad fracture. I now need an operation is to fix it, and my mummy and daddy wont let the vet put me to sleep or cut off my leg because its cheaper. All i want to do is get back to full health so i can make even more people smile. I have even been asked to visit a retirement home when COVID dies down, to entertain old people and make them smile.
I know this is a struggle for my mummy and daddy, especially because they want the best for me. Will you help me to get better.
Thanks for all your support.
Gary the Ginger Tabby Cat.
PS. ANY EXTRA MONEY RAISED ABOVE MY TREATMENT COSTS WILL BE DONATED TO: South Manchester Rehome & Rescue

3 years agoHi all, Just to let you all know that i have had my second check up, this time with the head vet that done my operation. He is very happy with the way that i am walking but still needs lots of cage rest. Very happy that Jade is off school now as she has been looking after me, making sure that i dont jump around. Even tho that i really want to. As you can see from my selfie, i have now had my stiches removed. I now have to wait another 3 weeks before i go for another xray to check the pins in my leg hasn't moved. Thank you. MEOW! xx

3 years agoThank you all so much who have donated and still a long way to go. Just letting you all know i have had my first checkup today. The VET was so happy with my progress so far, but there is still a long way to go, but its a good start. I still have to stay in my cage most of the time, but i am allowed out for a little walk and no jumping for 5 mins a day, and also allowed to lay on the sofa next to my daddy. I really want to go out and play but can't. I have a another appointment next week to have my stiches removed, cant wait! Thank you all.

3 years agoHi all, Thanks for your donations so far, it really means the world to me, that you all are willing to help. I have had my operation and it took a few hours to do. I have had metal pins and a plate in the top of my back leg. Now I am cage bound for the next few weeks. I also have a check-up Monday to see how its healing. Then a few weeks after that, another x-ray to ensure the pins and plate stayed in place. I really want to get out of this cage but my cuteness isn't working this time. Thank you all.
