Meet Dumpling
Dumpling Oxford has been through more than any cat should. After recently losing his human and his home, life threw him another curveball: an accident that left his tail severely injured after it was caught in a doorway. Just as the wound was starting to heal, Dumpling—frustrated and uncomfortable—chewed it down to the bone.
Thankfully, Project MEOW acted fast. Dumpling underwent emergency surgery at The Bridge Clinic to have part of his tail amputated. He’s now on the mend and looking adorably tough with his new stubby tail, but he’s not out of the woods yet.
This is a time-sensitive campaign—Dumpling’s follow-up care must continue without delay. Every day counts in his recovery, and your support will help cover the medical care he urgently needs.
