EDIT: We have been absolutely overwhelmed by the incredible response to our appeal! ❤️ Thank you so much to everyone who has offered to help and shared our post. We now have enough potential donors and don’t need any further volunteers at this stage. We are truly grateful for all your kindness and support. ❤️
❤️ URGENT APPEAL – CAN YOU HELP?
We currently have a cat in our care who desperately needs a blood transfusion within the next few days, and we’re looking for a blood type B donor.
We’re hoping to hear from anyone who knows their cat has blood type B, or who owns one of the following breeds, which may be more likely to have this blood type:
🐾 British Shorthair
🐾 Devon Rex
🐾 Cornish Rex
🐾 Birman
🐾 Persian
🐾 Exotic Shorthair
Ideally, potential donors should:
🐾 Weigh at least 3kg
🐾 Have no known health conditions
🐾 Be between 1 and 10 years old
Your cat doesn’t need to have been blood typed previously, as we can arrange testing to establish their blood group and suitability as a donor.
If you think your cat may be able to help, please contact our team at Forth Coast Veterinary Clinic on 01383 347931 between the hours of Monday to Friday 8.30am and 7pm and Saturday 8.30am to midday.
Please share our appeal. You could help save a life. ❤️
