Help Aang get 2 surgeries to unblock his bladder — Las Cruces, NM

Meet Aang! His forehead arrow reminded us of the Last Airbender character, so the name stuck. He’s a total goofball who doesn't loaf—he "chickens"! We rescued Aang at about 6 weeks old from the side of the road, he was covered in cuts and had severe eye infections. We nursed him back to health, and a week later, his adoptive sister Rocki joined our family.

​Aang suffered a life-threatening urinary blockage. We rushed him to urgent care to stabilize him, then to a vet the next morning for surgery. Tragically, he re-blocked and needed a second emergency surgery and extra hospital stay. Exactly one week after this nightmare started, his procedures are done and he can finally come home today!

Two years ago, we suddenly lost Aang’s adoptive sister, Rocki, when she was only a year old. It was unexpected and devastating for our whole family. We were heartbroken that we couldn't save Rocki, but thanks to the vet team, Aang pulled through his surgeries. He is a resilient survivor who means the world to us.

​We are facing severe financial hardship with limited income and an ongoing legal battle over our housing. Covering two back-to-back emergency surgeries and extended care is far beyond our means. Please help us pay for Aang's lifesaving care!
