Mishka is a 4 year old Pomeranian in Philadelphia, PA, who needs $2,000 for Surgery, Emergency, Hospital Stay, Medications.

Mishka came into my life four years ago and has been my constant companion ever since. I got him as a tiny puppy, and from that first day he has brought so much light and comfort into my life. We share a deep bond. His birthday is just one day after mine, so we always celebrate together. He is family to me, not just a pet, and his goofy, loving personality is what I live for. He's my bestfriend.

Mishka suddenly became very sick and started drooling, having stomach contractions, pale gums, and was visibly uncomfortable. He stopped eating and drinking, so I rushed him to the vet. After several tests they discovered he had a perforated stomach ulcer that required emergency surgery to save his life. The emergency surgery at BluePearl is very expensive and I'm doing everything I can to cover.

Mishka is one of those dogs who feels more like a person. He is full of personality and always finds a way to make me smile, even on the hardest days. He loves belly rubs, soft blankets, and attention from anyone who looks his way. He has a gentle heart and brings a calm, happy energy to everyone around him. He listens, he comforts, and he has this special way of knowing when something is wrong.

Mishka’s surgery and hospital care were completely unexpected and came at a time when I was already stretched thin. I used CareCredit to cover part of the cost, but the remaining balance is overwhelming. Having him healthy and home would mean everything to me.
