Help Juno Recover After Life-Threatening Hernia
Juno was found on the streets and brought to the shelter, emaciated and covered in fleas.
Shelter staff noticed Juno’s abnormal breathing and took her to the veterinarian. She was diagnosed with severe diaphragmatic hernia—usually caused by blunt force trauma in cats—and needed immediate surgical intervention. During surgery, complications caused Juno to temporarily lose her eyesight, though she has now regained it.
Juno needs extra postoperative care and has to stay at the hospital for a few more weeks before she’ll be fully recovered. Will you help Juno and other injured cats in Greece continue their medical care?
Help Juno recover from severe hernia!
In late 2023, Greater Good Charities were approached by groups working in the city of Xanthi, Northern Greece, to assist in the support of over 600 pets seeking out an existence in and around a municipal rubbish site. Since then, working alongside The Animal Rescue Site and community partners, they have provided food, specialist medical care, funded high quality spay-neuter services and supported foster and adoption for dozens of pets.
Thanks to the generosity of donors like you, Greater Good Charities and The Animal Rescue Site are in the process of deepening our commitment to the pets of Xanthi, ensuring every animal has the support it needs. We are also expanding our reach to several new areas within Greece, supporting both cats and dogs in need.
Juno is just one of the many pets we’re helping in Greece, but we can’t cover her ongoing care without your support. Help us meet our goal of $5,000 for Juno and pets like her.Â
