Thankfully, Lily was able to get Nancy out of the shelter before she was scheduled to be put down, and Nancy is now living with Lily.
Lily is hoping to be able to get Nancy a surgical thyroidectomy, where she will have her thyroid glands removed.
This surgery has an excellent success rate, which means a second chance at life is just around the corner for Nancy.
“The advantage of surgery is that it will be a permanent cure, so it eliminates the need for medicating her long-term,” explained Lily on a GoFundMe page. “The surgery requires general anesthesia and a 7-10 day stay for observation.”
Nancy is currently the 20th cat that Lily has managed to save.
“There are so many animals who are subjected to less than livable conditions in humane societies around the country,” Lily continued.
“At the first sign of illness, they are put on the ‘kill list’ because they can’t afford to help them. It’s our mission to rescue as many cats as possible! We want to give them a chance at life.”
