One person can make a huge difference, and we have a story to prove it. While it involves multiple people working together to save a sick kitten named Jingle, it all started with one person's action.
A kindhearted neighbor heard about a kitten living under the floorboards of an abandoned house and refused to let her starve so she brought her food. She realized that the tiny feline needed more help and reached out to her local humane society.

This led her to a two-person volunteer group known as Cats Meow TNR that traps, neuters, and vaccinates community cats in Kentucky and Tennessee.
Rescuers made their way around rusted wire and broken bottles in search of the kitten. They finally spotted an eye peering through the floorboards and it was Jingle.
The ten-week-old kitten had blood and pus oozing from a ruptured eye and needed emergency medical care. Her body was frail and motionless.

Cats Meow TNR rushed her to an animal clinic and used their own money to save her.
They reached out to Greater Good Charities' Emergency Animal Medical fund to help with her medical bills so they can continue to help more cats. This is where you can be part of her rescue story by donating towards her care.
Her rescuers told us, "Jingle’s tiny body was in septic shock, her temperature dangerously low. She was placed in a heat incubator, given emergency fluids, and prepped for surgery to have her injured eyeball removed."

They went on to say, "At less than three pounds, Jingle endured an intricate life-saving procedure. Her ruptured eye was removed, her face stitched up, and she was started on strong antibiotics."
She still has a long road to recovery and needs our help.
Donate now to help cover her surgery and ongoing care and give her the second chance she deserves.
