Kauai 24hr Vet

Our Story

When Cleo was hit by a car, Kauai had no 24-hour animal hospital. We had to fly her to another island to save her life. Watch her story — and why Kauai needs better.

Cleo's Big Trip

When Cleo was hit by a car, Kauai had no 24-hour animal hospital. We edited this video from our own footage — the drive, the flight, the race to VERC on Oahu — because every Kauai family deserves care without leaving the island.

Before — Life on Kauai

Cleo has been part of our family since she was a tiny kitten — curious, calm, always nearby. Like so many pets on Kauai, she lived a quiet island life until everything changed in an instant.

After — Recovery & Why We're Building This

Cleo came home — battered but alive. Weeks of recovery reminded us how much we love her, and how wrong it is that Kauai still has no local option for emergencies like hers.
