💜 Dottie Was Just Four Months Old When Everything Changed Dottie was safe in foster care with her siblings when a frightening medical emergency turned her little world upside down. Suddenly, she couldn't see. She developed severe tremors and seizure-like movements, struggled to breathe, and needed emergency veterinary treatment. Veterinarians suspect a lack of oxygen caused neurological damage. She was also treated for suspected pneumonia. For a kitten who had barely begun her life, the future became frighteningly uncertain. Dottie has made some encouraging progress. She's walking again and beginning to follow movement with her eyes. But her vision hasn't fully returned, the tremors continue, and even grooming herself leaves her exhausted. We still don't know how much Dottie will recover. She needs continued veterinary care, close monitoring and time. 💜 We Need Your Help Dottie's emergency veterinary expenses have already reached $1,718, and we're now raising $2,500 for her extended and upcoming care. Unfortunately, the financial strain goes beyond Dottie. After several costly medical emergencies, Hope Lives Here has been forced to temporarily close our doors to new intakes... And the requests for help haven't stopped. As another harsh Alberta winter approaches, sick, injured and abandoned animals will continue needing somewhere safe to go.  The hardest part of rescue is knowing we could help another animal, but having to say no because we simply can't afford another emergency. Our priority is seeing Dottie through her care while working toward the day we can welcome animals in need again. Will you help us give Dottie that chance?A donation of $10, $25, $50 or whatever you can spare will help us provide the care she still needs. Every contribution matters, and sharing her story can make a difference too. 💜 <a href="https://www.zeffy.com/en-CA/donation-form/help-dottie-through-emergency-veterinary-care" target="_blank">Donate to Dottie's Emergency Fund</a> We can't promise what Dottie's future will look like, but with your help, we can give her every opportunity to get better. Thank you for standing with Hope Lives Here when these little lives need us most. 💜
