How does Kitten Associates stand a chance to win? We need YOU! The non-profit with the most DONATIONS in a single day wins.

**1. DONATE $10 or more (more is good!) use THIS SPECIAL LINK ON FCGives between now and 11:59 PM EST.**

**2. TELL 10 of YOUR FRIENDS TO DO THE SAME. Sharing this post can dramatically improve our chances!**

Know that every dollar matters and makes a huge difference to our rescue efforts. The other cat rescue in town closed in December 2017, so we're ramping up to pick up the slack. It's going to be a busy year. We hope we can count on your help. Thank you for being part of our team!

Help Pom Pom Walk

We tried. We tried so hard, but now we need you.

Pom Pom Pomegranate has no chance of walking without discomfort unless we remove her back left leg. It’s taken us 10 months, specialist visits, tests, treatments, and zillions of hours of physical therapy to come to this decision. We need all of you to make it happen.

We need to raise $6,000. by March 9^th.

Give Pom Pom the gift of less pain and a chance to walk more easily.

You can use PayPal

Venmo @KittenAssociates

Checks: made out to Kitten Associates, P.O. Box 354, Newtown, CT 06470-0354

Why Now?

Pom Pom is almost a year old. Her body will not improve beyond what we've been able to do for her.

Imagine you have to keep your leg stretched out. You can’t bend it. You can’t support yourself on your foot because it bends backward at an awkward angle. The weight of the malformed leg forces your back to twist unnaturally. It causes shocks of nerve pain. How can you live like that?

Pom Pom can’t continue to live like this.

We know there are surgical risks. We’ve done extra testing to be as safe as we can be. Will this surgery make everything perfect? No, but her back leg hinders her mobility, so we feel this is her best option. We have to try for Pom Pom.

We can do it with you by our side.

Your gift is tax-deductible as we are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
