Pepper was brought to the shelter vet for first examination and basic care of the wound. The first treatment at the shelter vet was free, but he will need to get more extensive wound care at a private vet.
Examination 0.00 € Examination at the shelter vet was free. The wound was given a basic cleaning and disinfection. They aslo said that his teeth were rotten and he would need to get some teeth removed.
Medication 0.00 € He was given antibiotics, immune boosters and vitamins, as well as anti-parasite treatment.
Other 0.00 € He is currently on cage rest. He is eating, drinking and using the litterbox okay, but not too happy about being in the cage/ with us. We showed photos of the wound to the private vet, who says he will need to be admitted for more extensive wound care with cleaning and dressing 2x daily for the wound to heal.

This 3-4 months old kitten lives on the streets near my home. It has a huge wound under jaw. It was a little hard to catch, but when we were able to catch it, we took the kitten to vet, the wound was bigger than we expected. Vet cleared the hair around wound and did some basic wound cleaning .Kitten has rotten tooth as well.
I am Ayse. I live in Izmir and have started rescuing cats from the street in 1991. The first cat I rescued is Toygar. I found him with a broken leg and brougth him to the vet. Over the years, I have helped by treating and neutering more cats than I can count. In the winter, fewer people care for the strays, so at times, I even take care of 50+ cats and some dogs. I feed the stray cats in my area and usually have between 12-15 cats living at my place. I always try to find good homes for cats, that have been treated successfully and have even found homes for some of them in Germany. In addition to the cats living with me, many strays come visit my house and garden every day. Nowadways, getting the cats to the clinic and covering the treatment cost is very difficult. I don't have a car and the clinic fees are very high. I try to get support through instagram and facebook, to continue rescuing cats in need.
