Sad news to share about Archie
It is with a heavy heart that I share some sad news about Archie, the beloved kitten that our entire community rallied behind when he came into GHS’s care just before Thanksgiving Weekend.
While Archie’s prognosis was initially promising, he passed away earlier this week.
Archie was so special to us, and to all of you, and the support of our community allowed us to provide vital veterinary care to address the serious injuries he suffered after being hit by a car. Archie initially recovered well following surgery to repair his fractured jaw. He subsequently suffered a ruptured bladder that developed the following week and we provided a second emergency surgery to repair it.
We are heartbroken that despite our dedicated efforts, Archie developed complications that he was unable to fight through.
