Linus was found as a stray and transferred to rescue when a local shelter noticed his ear looked unusually thick and droopy. A veterinary exam soon revealed something far more serious.
Veterinarians diagnosed Linus with calcinosis cutis, a rare condition that causes hard calcium deposits to form under the skin. In his case, the disease affected both ears, leaving them in pain and prone to injury. To prevent further complications, surgeons performed a double ear amputation to remove the damaged tissue.
As spring brings a season of renewal and fresh beginnings, Linus is recovering from surgery and free from the pain he endured due to his condition. Your support can help cover the medications, medical bills, and monitoring he needs as he continues to heal and hop toward a healthier future.
Help him bounce back after multiple operations.
You can help Linus get the treatment he needs to heal. Your gift will not only give him the hope to keep fighting, but your donations will help cover his ongoing care.
Greater Good Charities works to provide emergency medical care to pets in shelters around the world and meet other critical needs, including food, supplies, transportation, sterilization, and disaster relief. With your donation, you can help save the lives of animals like these by covering their care.
Help us meet our goal of $9,000 for Linus and pets like him.
