A few weeks ago, we rescued Mr. Blinks in Brooklyn. He showed up at the feeding spot of a friendly feeder we often work with - super sweet, appearing out of nowhere, likely a dumped pet. But his case was urgent: **he was drooling from dental pain, and his eyes were crusty, half-shut, and unlike anything we had seen.** When our team member arrived, she didn’t even need a trap - Mr. Blinks walked straight into the carrier, grateful and affectionate, just wanting to be safe. At the vet, we learned he needs two teeth removed, treatment for a tongue ulcer, and corrective eye surgery. **He has a genetic condition that prevents his conjunctiva from developing properly, causing constant swelling, crusting, pain, and limited vision**. He’s about 5 years old and has lived his whole life like this without proper care. It’s heartbreaking and infuriating - he clearly struggles and is uncomfortable every day. We’re raising funds for his treatment. The estimate is high, but it’s the only way forward. Once his teeth, ulcer, and eyes are treated, he’ll finally have a pain-free life and be ready for a loving forever home. If you can spare anything for Mr. Blinks, thank you! Let’s help him see the world again - this time without pain. Link to donate in the comments. 🙏
