Every day was crucial for Firefly

Firefly arrived painfully thin, crawling with fleas, and so dehydrated that his organs were at risk of failing. Our veterinary team needed to act quickly.

It was essential to rehydrate Firefly as soon as possible, but his condition also needed continuous monitoring. Every day, he was at risk of dying.

In the 70 days it took Firefly to heal, he moved from critical medical care to our dedicated cat unit, then to a trusted foster home who eventually adopted him.
