Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered
I made a quick decision when I saw a stray kitten on the road & Without thinking I immediately introduced him to my other animals. I noticed his eyes had discharge and he was sneezing a lot. I brushed it off. He is very social and active with my guinea pigs. The other day my guinea pig, Pegasus, passed away, no scratches. The cat eye is really red, blurry, & swollen. I can't afford to take him to a vet or lose another beloved pet. Is there any free no-kill shelters or programs for strays in NC?
