Meet Jujube

Jujube is a 2-year-old semi-feral cat who was rescued in severe pain. 

Despite everything he’s been through, he’s slowly learning to trust — and with your help, he’ll get the care he still needs.

When Jujube Arrived

  • Severely matted fur (required sedation and a full groom)
  • Bleeding paws with torn nails
  • Internal and external parasites
  • Advanced bacterial and yeast ear infections
  • Fractured upper canine tooth with exposed pulp

Initial emergency cost: $505

Care Completed So Far

  • Neuter surgery
  • Vaccinations
  • Ear treatment
  • Antifungal injection
  • Deworming
  • Bloodwork
  • Dematting under sedation

What Jujube Still Needs

  • Dental extraction surgery
  • Post-operative monitoring
  • Prescription nutrition — Royal Canin GI Fiber Response ($100/bag)
  • Behavioral rehabilitation

Jujube remains in foster care and is not yet ready for adoption.

Fundraising goal: $1,200 for Jujube’s dental surgery
