Mocha

Mocha was living in horrible conditions under a dumpster at one of our feral cat locations that we feed and care for daily. Mocha had given birth to a litter of kittens, we removed and adopted, before we were able to trap her for TNVR. During our visits to her location, we noticed at times she was not interested in eating so we kept a closer look on her for a couple days.

During this time, we noticed an increased amount of saliva that included blood, which caused us to panic. We immediately began to try and trap her which required some sophisticated ideas since food was not going to work in this case. It actually took a couple months before we were able to finally trap her.

Finally, examined by a veterinarian Mocha was diagnosed with chronic ulcerative and pleocellular stomatitus with extensive plasmacytic infitrates with mild atypa. Mocha was treated with steroid and antibiotic injections for several months until the vet recommended a full dental tooth extraction surgery for the best quality of life for Mocha.

Mocha now enjoys her days at the sanctuary with her bestie Coco where she is now also able to keep herself groomed and requires injections less frequently.
