“Squall” who was suffering in a yard for several days with many severe abscesses, severe eye infection, lice, and was unneutered was taken today to Animal Fix Clinic.

Special thanks to AFC for their medical attention and for the support from Aline Forbes who financed his medical and he was able to be seen immediately after he was trapped.

He is recovering from his injuries tonight with Aline and it appears his left eye will be just fine when his facial abscesses heal and dry out. He was also neutered, vaccinated, treated for parasites including lice, and is now microchipped.

Thank you to everyone involved in giving this feral cat a name, future, and for the love and care every cat deserves.

He will be TNR’d once fully recovered. (But things changed)

Update: 5/12/24

“Squall” had to return to AFC for a drain tube due to more swelling in his left cheek and eye. His left eye is looking a bit better after the fluid drain and the Dr said he will have no vision loss. He was also combo-tested for FIV/FeLV and is NEGATIVE! 🎉The cat has gained 12oz in just a few days thanks to his Foster @alineforbes. (Severely underweight) He got his first Churu ever thanks to his loving Foster Aline who is giving him so much love and medical care.

That being said, he has been accepted into EBARR - East Bay Animal Rescue & Refuge and Nicole Martinez will take him into her Indoor/Outdoor climate-controlled Catio in about a month. Until then Squall will heal from his wounds with Aline and once he is medically cleared he can join Nicole’s home.

Thank you to everyone involved in his story, and struggles, and who have rallied behind him. He is a fighter (literally) and deserves a future where he can get off the streets and be loved, happy, no wants, and enjoy the years he has left in a safe environment.

Please step up and don’t turn your back on an animal in need. We have a village here and let’s do what’s right, not what’s easy to give these cats humane care and compassion. Remember he was in a yard for quite a while like Stanly and was left to suffer just like Stanley until Jeff Traina took it upon himself to go and take those animals off the street.

Remember animals like these are more than likely going to be lifers, Which means they keep up space in our homes. Because of this we are fundraising for Squall and every cat that we take in. I am also hoping to find someone that's willing to sponsor Squall.

If you're interested in parting with thirty dollars a month to provide basic necessities to Squall, we would appreciate it very much.

Your $30 a month to sponsor Squall would be greatly appreciated.
