Over the past several months, IAR has rescued 55 cats from a household in Fuquay Varina. This household originally had over 60 cats, and their caretaker was in danger of being evicted. The first cats that we got were generally healthy, and most of them have already been adopted, or are in our foster program. However, the last batch of 17 cats that we picked up this week will have major dental expenses. There are several 10 year old cats, including a three siblilngs who seem to have inherited a tendency to gum disease. The vet who saw them this week said that they were the worst mouths they had seen, and the cats had been in pain for some time. Initial dental expenses will be at least $150 per cat, plus they will need periodic antibiotic treatment, and regular dental care. Our expenses for this rescue have already been enormous, since even for healthy cats our adoption fees do not cover our expenses. We are asking your help to cover the expenses of helping these cats who badly need us. Please consider making a contribution for the Fuquay Cat Rescue.
