Pork Bao (aka Bao Bao) is a 3 year old American Shorthair in vancvouer, WA, who needs $1,000 for Diagnostic Abdominal Ultrasound with Sedation.

Pork Bao, or "Bao Bao" as he is affectionately known, is the heartbeat of our home. We adopted him from the Humane Society about a year ago, following the sudden and heartbreaking loss of our two previous pets. Bao Bao arrived just when we needed him most, helping us to begin the healing process. He is an incredibly special companion, and we are so grateful for the comfort he brings to our lives.

Bao Bao is currently being seen at the Pacific Northwest Pet ER & Specialty Center. During routine pre-dental bloodwork, the vet found some unexpected and concerning abnormalities. To get to the bottom of what is going on, he urgently needs advanced diagnostics, including a full gastrointestinal panel and an abdominal ultrasound. We are desperate to find answers so we can treat him.

​Bao Bao is an irreplaceable part of our family and a vital companion who helps me navigate and cope with daily life. He has a huge personality and the unique ability to know exactly when someone needs a little extra comfort or a quiet cuddle. He stepped into our lives during a time of deep grief and completely transformed our home with his love. We cannot imagine life without his handsome face.

​These specialty diagnostic tests came up entirely unexpectedly, leaving us facing an immediate $1,200 bill that we simply cannot afford on our own. Because I am currently navigating a pending Social Security disability application, our budget is incredibly tight.
