Do You Believe in Magic?

Magic's heart-wrenching journey began in the heat of summer when PBJ rescued this 9-month-old kitten from a community cat rescuer in rural SW Virginia. Magic had suffered severely from a flea infestation and malnourishment, causing him to lose his fur, become skeletally thin, and unable to walk or sit up for periods at a time. Upon his arrival, we also discovered that he weighed only 2 lb, which is far below the normal weight for a cat his age. After taking him to our vet for blood work, we found that Magic was severely anemic, with a hematocrit level of only 11% compared to the normal 100%.

Despite all of this, Magic never gave up. With over a month of supportive medical care, multiple close calls and trips to the ER, and an abundance of TLC, we are thrilled to announce that Magic has made a full recovery and has found an adoptive forever home! We firmly believe that no kitty should ever have to suffer in such a way, and we are overjoyed that Magic has found his forever home, where he is receiving the nourishment and love he deserves. Magic's incredible journey to recovery is a true miracle, and we are honored to have such a dedicated community of supporters who helped him along the way!
