Max's House Urgent Matters

Oreo is a young black and white (hence-Oreo!) male cat who is in a very desperate situation. He was recently rescued from the street but had lost an eye somehow in his passage through life. A trip to the vet and it was sewn up and really looks like it was never there. Okay now everything's fine- right? Poor Oreo has another really urgent problem- he is losing the sight in his remaining eye. Oreo needs to be seen by a veterinary eye surgeon to see if we can save what's left of his sight. The problem right now is the cost of this procedure. He is a very sweet cat and we can't bear to put another burden on this sweet guy. Homeless is bad enough but homeless and BLIND! If you can't take him into your home, if you can make a donation to our rescue in his name- he and all of us will be very grateful.Our medical spending right now is stretched to the limit and every donation will be greatly appreciated.

How to Help

Sly was a victim of abuse and abandonment. When we rescued him his spirit was broken and he was extremely malnourished.
Initial blood tests revealed he was borderline anemic and in the early stages of hepatic lipidosis (fatty liver syndrome)- a
disease that develops when a cat doesn't eat for prolonged periods of time. After a few months of intense medical and
nutitional therapy his anemia and hepatic lipidosis have completely resolved. Under the loving care of one of our volunteers,
he has blossomed into a truly beautiful, healthy, trusting and confident cat.

Give The Gift of Life

Sponsor a Homeless Kittens' Vaccination Series for just $22.00.

The FVRCP kitten vaccination series consists of the Feline Panleukopenia (feline parvovirus), Rhinotracheitis (feline herpesvirus), and Feline Calicivirus vaccines.

With kitten season beginning in just a few weeks, we are in desperate need of funds to vaccinate the hundreds of homeless and abandoned kittens that would otherwise die from preventable diseases.

There's no better way to honor a special animal companion than by giving the gift of life to a homeless and abandoned kitten in his or her name. A tribute gift will help you celebrate your beloved companion whose memories fill your heart or whose presence enriches your life.

If you'd like to make your contribution in tribute to or in memoriam of a special animal companion, send a picture of your special friend to tribute@maxshouse.com or by mail to:

Max's House Animal Rescue, Inc./Tribute
P.O. Box 1581

We'll add your picture of your beloved companion to our online Tribute Gallery.

Spencer after surgery

Spencer has been diagnosed with a congenital, embryologic tumor known as a dermoid.on his left eye.
The dermoid is a mass of skin growing on his cornea that also contains hair follicles from which hair is
growing. The mass and hair growing from the mass are constantly irritating his eye which, in addition to the constant discomfort, is obstructing his vision and preventing his eyelid from closing properly. Spence must
wear an Elizabethan collar at all times to prevent him from scratching his eye out to relieve the constant
irritation and discomfort. If the tumor isn’t removed as soon as possible, it will increase in size and extend more invasively and probably result in the loss of sight in his left eye or even the loss of his eye as a whole.

Spence desperately needs surgery to remove the tumor as soon as possible. Because we have so many animals that need special care, our medical spending right now is stretched to the limit. Every donation to help pay for Spence’s surgery will be greatly appreciated. How to Help

Rusty was hit by a car on Rt 20 in Paterson. While he was trying to drag himself
to side of the road he was hit by another car and suffered two broken legs and. internal
injuries. After 4 months of hospitalization and multiple surgeries, Rusty has recovered
completely! He has a slight limp but that will go away in time as his muscles get stronger.
