Cinnamon is a 4-year-old Shih Tzu mix in Fall River, MA, who needs $4,768 for cataract surgery.

Cinnamon was fostered with someone else from a local shelter. I adopted her 4 months ago and she is irresistible. There are no other pets in the household. She is so adorable and despite her handicaps she is a happy little girl. She gets around pretty well but she still bangs into things sometimes and it breaks my heart.

Cinnamon sleeps with me and hogs the air conditioner which makes me laugh she and loves to cuddle. She can hardly see and her hearing isn't too well either. She loves to play rough, which means we play on the bed so she won't get hurt. She lets me know when she wants to play by jumping on the bed like a bunny rabbit. It's hilarious.

I am a disabled/elderly woman. I am on a fixed income and would be able to handle the cost of the surgery if it was 2,000 dollars. He gave me the estimate of 6,000.00. This is why I am reaching out to you.

Cinnamon has advanced cataracts. The vet said that she had them for along time. She is only 4 years old and she deserves a chance to see again. The vet said that her condition is hereditary because she is so young. She is playful and I believe she will enjoy her walks more if she can see better. Cinnamon is such a sweetheart.

I live in a low income community for the elderly/disabled . One of the maintenance men in our building is an animal lover & she loves to play with him. She barks once when she needs to go out. She is affectionate & loves to cuddle. She is very smart. When her water bowl is empty she taps it with her paw. When we are waiting for the elevator if the door doesn't open quick enough she taps it.
