Please help quick!
My friend had a stray cat kind of adopt them. She hasn't seen her in about a month and she just came back to her house and one of her eyes is falling out of her head. My friend has not a single penny to take this cat for care and she is terrified that it will be euthanized at a shelter. Does anyone know where she can take it (she's in Suffolk) to be looked at that won't charge her up the caboose?

I don't live in Suffolk so I don't have a rec but she needs to get that cat to a vet asap. Is she close to plainview at all? What about Long Island Veterinary Specialists? 163 South Service Road, Plainview, NY 11803 (516) 501-1700. I believe they are a 24 hour facility.

There is a 24 hour animal hospital in Coram (i think) but i don't know what they would charge. I know they are expensive but I don't know how they handle strays.
There is definitely a cat hospital in Coram. Brookhaven Cat Hospital (631) 698-8282.
Also, Island Rescue with is on 112 in Medford. I don't have their number.
I think because it is late she may need to take the cat to a hospital.
Good Luck.

Thanks. We're right by Island Rescue, but of course they're closed. I told her to take the cat to the Animal Hospital in Coram. I know they charge up the rear for anything, but maybe if they explain the situation, they can guide them in the right direction? Thank for your help!

Vets Highway in Bohemia has a 24 hour emergency bet Atlantic Coast Veterinary Specialists. I can't say they are cheap though...
