About this campaign
Priscilla’s stomach was the first battleground you could see. Scarred, stretched, and sagging, it painted a brutal picture of her past. This gentle girl gave herself over and over, nursing countless litters until there was almost nothing left. By the time she landed at the shelter, she was just skin and bones, her body a roadmap of relentless sacrifice. And yet, those quiet days in that bare kennel might have been the safest she’d ever known.
Then came a routine spay surgery that should have opened a door to a better life. But instead of relief, there was a faint line of blood along her incision site—an indication that it was *far* worse than a mere minor complication. Because beneath that thin layer of skin, Priscilla was bleeding internally—her organs just inches from spilling out.
If not for one vigilant shelter employee who refused to ignore a small red flag, Priscilla would have lost her life. Thankfully, they contacted rescuers of One by One Animal Advocates, who stepped in and rushed her to the hospital where she underwent life-saving surgery. And against all odds—and despite all the abuse her body had endured—Priscilla pulled through, her spirit refusing to quit.
Today, she’s in foster care, still fragile but slowly recovering. Every soft bed, every gentle pat, every kind word is a brand-new experience. Her future is no longer defined by suffering; it’s ripe with the promise of care, safety, and respect. In fact, just a day after surgery Priscilla's appetite started to return—she even tried a cuddly bone in foster care. But this is just the tip of this girl's recovery iceberg: there’s a long road ahead, both physically and emotionally.
Priscilla deserves to heal and finally experience the love and safety she’s never known. Please help by donating today to support the costs of Priscilla's life-saving surgery and care. Together, we can give this girl all the love, comfort, and peace she so deserves—and prove that her life can be defined by healing, not hurt.
