About this campaign
Mr. Sammy was rescued from the Rio Grande Valley in absolutely heartbreaking condition.
When CAMO Rescue stepped in, he was suffering. His entire body was completely matted, and he was covered in over 200 ticks. It was clear he needed our help, and now.
After his grooming appointment, things became even more alarming. Under all that fur, it was discovered that Mr. Sammy’s entire body is covered in bruises, showing just how much trauma his little body has endured.
Now, Mr. Sammy is fighting for his life.
He has been rushed to the Emergency Vet, where testing revealed he is positive for anaplasmosis, a serious tick-borne disease that attacks the blood and can prevent the body from clotting properly.
in short, if Mr. Sammy were to get something as small as a nosebleed… he could bleed out. His platelet count, which should be over 175,000, is currently at a dangerously low 4,000.
Because of this critical condition, Mr. Sammy will remain hospitalized for the next 2–3 days, receiving intensive care and a lifesaving blood transfusion. The medical costs for treatment, transfusions, and hospitalization are significant, and we cannot do this without support.
Every dollar goes directly toward his urgent care, and every share helps us reach someone who can give. Mr. Sammy has already survived so much. Now he needs a community behind him to make sure he survives this, too. Thank you for standing with CAMO Rescue and giving Mr. Sammy the chance he deserves.
