Big Boy came to us from New Orleans. He was left homeless as a result of Hurricane Katrina. Upon arrival he became ill with fatty liver syndrome. We see this time to time in cats surrendered to shelters. The cats seem to lose
the will to live after having been abandoned or surrendered by their
family. They stop eating and their systems shut down. The costs
to treat Big Boy and other like him cost upwards of $1,500. Unfortunately, Big Boy did
not make it; cats survive fatty liver syndrome about 60% of the
time. We are seeking donations in honor of Big Boy to help save other cats who experience this awful disease.
