Blankets for Rio

Kidney failure, cardiac disorder, FIV, calicivirus: poor Rio needs support!

1. He has renal and cardiac problems…

Rio, a cat of about seven years old, faces several severe health problems. In addition to being a cardiac patient, he has been suffering from renal failure for the past two weeks. He is, therefore, particularly fatigued and has lost weight…

2. Vulnerable in terms of immunity, he finally caught a serious virus!

Rio tested positive for FIV, a disease referred to as "cat's AIDS" when it triggers because it destroys the animal's immune defences. Weakened, Rio finally contracted a calicivirus. As the inside of his mouth is inflamed, he struggles to eat and can't regain his strength…

3. With blankets, he could stay nice and warm

A set of blankets would provide Rio with a source of comfort and warmth, to prevent him from getting even more ill. This way, he could rest and effectively recover, thereby preserving his fragile health.

4. Our treasury is depleted!

Our association finds itself in a difficult financial situation, with a veterinarian debt of several thousand euros, accumulated last year. We have concentrated our efforts on finding funding to pay off this debt, while still having to feed nearly 314 cats, including 80 stray cats!

Without any treasury in advance, day-to-day management and the purchase of special food for the most vulnerable animals have become particularly complicated. And inflation is only making things worse…
