A Seattle man is reaching out to the community for support after his cat, Storm, survived a severe coyote attack in the Queen Anne neighborhood earlier this month.
Ryan Smith, who set up a GoFundMe campaign for Storm, recalled the harrowing incident that took place on May 12 at approximately 4:30 a.m. He was awakened by Storm's screams and, upon looking outside, discovered the cat dangling from the jaws of a coyote. Smith and other homeowners managed to chase the coyote away, prompting it to release Storm.Immediately, Smith took Storm to an emergency veterinary clinic.
With that hope, Smith approved brain surgery to remove fragments that could further harm Storm's brain.Storm is currently on the mend and showing gradual improvement in his ability to walk. Nevertheless, the medical interventions have placed a financial strain on the Smith family, with the costs totaling around $17,000. An overnight emergency vet visit exceeded $5,000, and the neurologist's services were estimated to be just over $10,000.
