Hello Friends, my story goes back a few years and continues to this very day. I have been out of work since July 2017, needed Surgery which finally happened in May 2019. In that time span I lost 3 cats in a six month period. Without work, emergencies are impossible for me on my small Social Security Income, and needless to say I blame myself for their loss. So when I noticed a lump, a month or so ago on my Big Andy's cheek (white & tan cat) I was beside myself. I searched the internet for help and organized a GoFundMe Campaign for his surgery. The good Lord sent me some wonderful people including the Foundation for Care of Indigent Animals (FICA) of Spring Valley, CA. The surgery went well and Andy is now on his way to a full recovery. HOPEFULLY, this very morning another beloved cat of mine Suzy (tabby) passed away in my arms. She had been struggling with Asthma. Suzy and Andy where friends from the very beginning when I rescued her from the street. I hope this does not sadden him too much so that he may continue to heal properly. Through my deep sadness of losing Suzy, I am still so grateful to all that helped my Big Andy. God Bless and Happy Holidays. Rachel - El Cajon, California
My fur child Thi was diagnosed with a splenic tumor and needed surgery immediately. Thanks to the help of FCIAb we were able to get him in right away. Unfortunately things didn't turn out as planned and it ended up being liver not spleen and further surgical procedures are needed but if it wasn't for the FCIA's help we never would have gotten this far. Thank you for helping save my baby boy's life.
