Winter

Winter is a 10-year-old Domestic shorthair in Camp Hill PA, PA, who needs $1,940 for Chemotherapy.

Camp Hill PA, PA

I have a domestic short-hair named Winter. She is 10 years old and has been with me since she was 4 months old. She found me in the Winter time as a stray and has been with me ever since. Even escaping to be with her cat friends, she always came back, so I made her a forever home with me. She is my first fur friend. Winter likes to sunbathe in front of a window while at the top of her cat condo. She enjoys her ball track and toy mouse (as long as there's catnip). She takes to women mainly, and was comforting to her cat brother Tux, when he was not feeling well (he passed from an undiagnosed heart condition, unfortunately the vet did not hear a murmur and we could not find the issue in time). Winter has given comfort after I lost my mom; she helped me get through health issues; and she helped me get through a masters program. She is playful and loves to be petted, and is very inquiring about what I do at the computer. She likes to sit with me while I work or study at the computer. Winter also provided comfort after I lost another pet from an undiagnosed heart condition. Over the Summer, I noticed a small swelling on her left hock. I took her to the emergency vet hospital (Shores in Harrisburg PA), her vet at Colonial Park and a specialist in Lancaster. She has a growth on her left lung along with the hock growth. It was confirmed after several tests that she has malignant lymphoma. Last treatment payment was approved by Paws 4 a cure for one time treatment. I lost my job in August due to downsizing because of covid. I am on unemployment and food stamps. I cannot afford her current treatments which are at $400 a treatment for chemotherapy. Currently, she is on gabapentin, prednisolone, cyclophosphamide and vincristine.

Buddy

Buddy is a 3-year-old Dachshund mix in Dallas, TX, who needs $1,850 for Medical Treatment.

Dallas, TX

During a winter ice storm this sweet terrified little doggie was waiting on a porch for his previous family who had abandoned him when they were evicted. With the help of dedicated neighbors we were able to catch him and take him in. He was so skinny and it took a while for him to trust us. He is now family. My 2 boys adore him and we can’t imagine our home without our sweet Buddy. Buddy can jump so high and he does make everyone laugh by bouncing up and down like Tigger from Winnie the Pooh. He really shows that he loves his new family and we love him. He is the sweetest most loving dog. He has huge baby eyes and the softest ears. He loves attention and will guard our house and family like we are royalty. He’s really helped both my boys with invaluable life lessons. He chases every squirrel, bird and suspected living creature he hears. Buddy naps like a newborn baby, but really most of the time he is very busy and always curious about everything. He was nervous and scared when we first took him in but now runs the roost. He’s very smart. We were just about to start working on getting him better socialized around other dogs so that he can be on walks safely. With no warning, Buddy became unresponsive and collapsed. We are now 3 days in the ER and it seems he was stung or poisoned by something that sent him into anaphylactic shock and his tummy is shredded. The ER is working so hard to get him stable. Today they said he’s really been fighting and has made amazing progress. We were just unprepared for a young animal to have such a serious issue. We consider ourselves fortunate given Covid, but we did lose 1 income, which won’t be replaced since we now care for not just our 2 boys, but also an elderly parent. We thank our lucky stars, but always fighting to get ahead. This large vet bill is incredibly stressful.

I purchased Angel as a gift for my sister Betty, when Angel was only 8 weeks old. At that time, Betty was at Stage 3 Kidney Failure. Angel gave her years of faithful companionship. Betty passed away in June of 2021, due to Renal Failure. Angel faced placement in an Animal Shelter. My heart knew Angel's faithfulness deserved so much more. 3 Ladies under my care offered to "Foster" Angel. Fostering Angel met helping her find a home. Angel was sad & withdrawn. I watched as they nurtured her back to life. She was happy again. Playing with toys, running out side & snuggling to sleep. After weeks, someone asked to take Angel. We all talked.The Ladies asked "Can we Adopt her?"l just got over the loss of my sister.Leaving could break her heart again. Yes was the best answer for! Angel give what she receives from the Ladies.She has added a special quality in the lives of Rolita, Evelyn & Julie -Her "Adoptive Mothers" Together,Life Balances. She loves chasing leaves in the yard! The smell of Coffee in the morning is like her Alarm for Breakfast. Angel sits like a Prarie Dog to get your attention for treats. Angel arrived with an ongoing ear infection. The only reason we know is because of paper work we found in her box. She had received 3-4 treatments of antibiotics since in the ladies care,to no prevail. She requires Surgery to remove an Ear Canal. Angel's file is under - Angel Boston Center for Advanced Veterinary Care. Angel belongs to Rolita, Evelyn and Julie. Their SSI is used for Room & Board & monthly personal needs. What they lack in finances,they make up in Love. Angels can attest to that! They worry about Angel.Angel will be so much "Happier"if this taken care of

Sergeant Tibbs

Sergeant Tibbs is a 1-year-old Tabby in Woburn, MA, who needs $2,000 for perineal urethrostomy.

Woburn, MA

Sarge and I have been together for a little over a year. I got him off Facebook, and he has been the light of my life ever since. He’s been there through me at my worst and now I’m here to do the same for him. Sarge is a year and a half old and has gone through so much in the past week. I’d do anything to help him Sgt. Tibbs has been my best friend since the day I got him. He’s always so lovable, social, and just flat out amazing. He loves going on the roof of the house, and playing with his best puppy friend Monte. Tibbs loves his scratching boards and laying under blankies. He loves getting treaties (chicken is his fav) Tibbs is so easy going and lovable. He turns dog people into cat people with his personality. He will climb up on your lap and cuddle with you without a question. He never hisses, bites, or scratches. He is very much a lover not a fighter in that sense. Everyone that comes over says how cool my cat is In October, Tibbs had an obstruction of his urethra. I was told he could become blocked. Well he did. He has become blocked 3 times in the past 5 days and now needs surgery for a more permanent catheter. Because of the blockages, his kidney levels have been very off, making him susceptible to kidney failure. This was all so sudden. I’ve been trying to cover what I can but it’s not enough. I’ll do anything to save Sarge. Pets aren’t just animals. They are family. Please help me

Boogie

Boogie is a 1-year-old American Pit Bull Terrier in Timberlake, NC, who needs $1,600 for Femoral head osteotomy.

Timberlake, NC

Boogie came to us from a backyard breeder. He had been taken from his mom at only one month old and was being given adult dog food. We felt like we could give him a good life and he would have a chance at being a happy family pet for many years to come. His name was initially Dexter but the nickname Boogie stuck very quickly so we decided to change his name officially to Boogie! Boogie is a super silly puppy. He enjoys playing with his fur-brother Shadow but his favorite hobby is napping! He has a best friend named Squish the pug! He enjoys his feline brothers and sisters and can often be found curled up with one OR chasing one! He loves all the members of our household, human or furry! Boogie is super smart. He has learned several tricks along the way including sit, paw, lay down, and the newest “stretch “. He is afraid of the vacuum and loves to bark anytime mom gets that out! He has built a super close and special bond with his mom and follows her every where she goes. He is very friend and has never met a stranger! Boogie has been diagnosed with hip dysplasia. Upon having a orthopedic surgery consult at Triangle Referral Vet Hospital. We have decided to move forward with a femoral head osteotomy. This would create a false joint at the hip and relieve any pain associated with the dysplasia. It is also a more cost effective alternative to complete hip replacement. He can live a long happy healthy life! We have a family of five so coming up with $3,600 spur of the moment is no easy feat. I’ve been on disability for 2 years so income is limited as it is for many families.

Jack

Jack is a 11-year-old Yorke/Chihuahua/Pomeranian in Preston, CT, who needs $719 for dental extractions.

Preston, CT

My daughter had been seriously ill and begged for a "tiny" dog. She saved all her Birthday money and asked for puppy related items. July 4th 2010 this 3 month old, 5lb boy changed our lives forever.. Like Clifford the Big Red Dog he grew with all our ❤ to be 18lb. Not so tiny dog. He is my best friend and confident. Always ready to attack with kisses. I call him my Lickopotamus. He quickly became my dog and although he snuggles with my daughter, he stole my heart and follows me everywhere. As a puppy, he would play hide and seek with the kids and run like crazy through the house finding them. His antics always makeme to smile. He loves to play fetch. Typically he gets the ball, runs in the opposite direction of me. I fetch and throw again. We know who's in control. Much to Jack's dismay. Our cocker spaniel Alistair "Al" joined our family 7 years ago. The boys get along mostly with a bit of sibling Rivalry. Jack protects us from TV animals. Barking and jumping. I'm so grateful he saves us from the flat screen beasts. He sleeps in the crook of my arm every night, with covers no mayter the season. Home is wherever he is. Jack requires dental surgery with extractions. Antibiotics helped but infections come back. He is thinner, less active and has a difficult time eating. Dr Cox at Norwichtown Veterinary Hospital is his doctor and she will perform the procedure under general anesthesia. We're confident that he'll feel so much better and be back to his shenanigans in no time. We recently moved, and are living paycheck to paycheck without any buffer. I'm not an extravagant person and not afraid of hard work. It's trying sometimes. Having Jack in my life is the bright spot on the darkest days.

Nala

Nala is a 1-year-old Labrador Retriever in Snohomish, WA, who needs $2,000 for Surgery, Enterotomy single.

Snohomish, WA

Our sweet chocolate Lab, Nala, came to us in March 2020. Perfect time to train a puppy with everything shut down due to Covid. She is the sweetest pup ever and she has a 3 year old black lab brother, Gunnar, who adores her. Nala lives in a single family home with myself, my husband and 15 year old daughter. She has an entire acre to run around on. A lab’s dream!! Nala is part of our family. We are a family who allows the dogs on the furniture and lets them sleep with us. Nala is my shadow when I am home. We had a routine every morning when I got up, she got up with me, went into the bathroom while I got ready. We went downstairs while I had my coffee and she waited patiently to lick my empty cup after I finished it. I hope she’ll be back to doing that. Our total bill was $8,666.60. We were able to get care credit for $3,000, we put $2,500 down and the rest we owe is $3196.06. Nala will have to be on seizure medications for a minimum of 6 months, maybe for life. With all the follow up appts. & labs, the cost will soar. Nala chewed up a toy & swallowed a squeaker from the toy. She was vomiting & just felt unwell. I could not get her in to see anyone close by, including her regular vet. I finally got her into Seattle Veterinarian Specialists who performed surgery. After surgery, Nala started having seizures. Dr. Waldrop was one of the treating doctors, as Nala’s condition required her to be in the ICU. Nala fits her name very well. Ever since she was a little puppy, she would hide behind a log in our backyard and jump out and pounce on her brother, Gunnar, just like the lioness from Lion King. Nala also loves to play ball. She’ll play ALL day long if you kept throwing the ball for her. She is unique in that she has a strip on hair on her nose that grows the opposite direction. One of a kind.

Ash

Ash is a 4-year-old Mix in Espanola, NM, who needs $2,000 for Mega-esophagus restriction repair.

Espanola, NM

Ash came to me as a stray. He was skin and bones and looks very unhealthy. I immediately noticed when I tried to feed him everything he ate or drank was vomited right back up. I took him in immediately to my local veterinary and he was diagnosed with a Mega esophagus restriction. At this point I have to feed him many times a day with him standing on his hind legs and keeping his head extended. In the short time that I have had ash he has become a huge part of my daily activities. My emotional service dog tiger who is roughly 9 years old dearly loves him. In between tiger and Ash they are helping me keep my depression and my PTSD in check. It is only me and my babies. Ash deserves a chance to have a life. Whoever his previous owners were were very negligent I am on Social Security disability and try to work two days a week at my local vets. I have severe depression, PTSD, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, heart disease. At this point tiger and Ash are keeping me going. When I showed up at my house as a stray he was skin and bones. He would vomit anything he would eat or drink. My local vet referred me to Dr. Robert Gruda in Santa Fe New Mexico to repair the esophagus restriction and to try to give Ash The life he deserves. I have to feed him numerous times a day and I’m willing to do that for the rest of his life. If that’s the case. Ash is my up-and-coming service dog. He will be taking over tigers position. Ash puts a smile on my face every day by just his crazy antics. He will roll over on his back and start barking so somebody will play with him. Even though he is a puppy he is very intelligent and keeps myself and tiger on her toes. He has definitely brought a new dynamic to our family

Iggy

Iggy is a 9-year-old Mini Pinscher mix in Bakersfield , CA, who needs $2,000 for Pancreatitis, enlarged liver.

Bakersfield, CA

Iggy was adopted from the shelter. He came into my life because I was looking for a companion for his sister Sydney a terrier who was having a very difficult time adjusting when being left alone while I went to work each day. Iggy has been a part of my family for 9 years. His sister was adopted from the same shelter 2 years earlier. He has been a loving addition to our family for 9 years. Iggy is a very quite, thoughtful and calm little soul unlike his rambunctious and lively Manchester Terrie mix sister, Sydney. His bark is even calming if you can picture that. He loves walks in the morning and a quiet uneventful day. His most favorite pastime is watching animal planet and watching his sister react to animals on TV as if to say to her, “relax silly they’re on TV not in the house!” I am retired and on a fixed income. Iggy has been hospitalized twice and will continue to need specialized care for the rest of his life. I am constantly budgeting for his ongoing care. Any help to keep Iggy healthy and happy is heart felt and greatly appreciated. December 2020, Iggy was diagnosed with pancreatitis and this year an enlarged liver. He has been hospitalized 2x, needs prescription food, medication support and ongoing medical care. I am a cancer survivor myself and although my fur babies are not trained companion dogs, they give me more love and comfort than I can describe. Iggy and Sydney are life support for me if you will. When Iggy makes eye contact it’s as if he wants to speak to you or tell you a story. He’s actually waiting for words he does understand like, treats, walk, outside, and nighty night. Well, not so much nighty night. While his sister runs away when she hears bath time, Iggy excitedly jumps into the tub and patiently waits for his massage from mommy—bottom teeth protruding with a smile!
