Meet Sage

Sage was found with an injured back leg and, upon vetinerary examination, it was determined the leg needed to be amputated. Even though she was just a little kitten, it had been fractured already and then had re-fractured. The decision to amputate the leg was the right choice. As you can see from her video, she has recovered well and gets around just fine!
She’s not required to take any other medicines than any other kitten would.

Sage loves to sleep on your lap and begins to purr the second she gets a pat. She use to be very cautious of her environment and the people in it but now will run up to you the second she’s about to be feed. She lives in the same house as two dogs but is kept in a separate room.

Sage is microchipped, desexed and up to date with her vaccinations, so is ready and raring to go to her furever family.

DCH is grateful to Kellyville Ridge Veterinary Hospital for doing the surgery at a discounted rate to give Sage a chance at a good life.
We are very thankful to the following people who have all helped and donated $582 for Sage's surgery. She cannot say Thank you herself but we say a big Thank you on her behalf.
Nadine, Leesa, Nick, Lauren, Debbie, Laura, Nabila, Gabby, Em, Jan, Steven, Anne-Marie and Georgia
