Rico

Rico is a 1.7-year-old Ragdoll Cat in Morehead City, NC, who needs $2,000 for Perineal Urethrostomy Surgery.

Morehead City, NC

I got Rico when he was about 5 months old. I was down in Puerto Rico visiting my father in law who raises stray pets. When I saw met Rico I fell in love and truly I mean in love. I had never been much of a cat person but once I saw his sparkling blue eyes I knew he was mine. We rushed around town that day to get him checked by a vet and prepped to fly out with me later that night. To continue-- Sure enough Rico flew home with me to North Carolina. Since that day Rico has fit into our house beautifully. Other 2 pups, Lyza and Maggie absolutely adore him-- especially Maggie, they are the best of friends (craziest part is Maggie isn't always the greatest with other pets).When Rico came into our lives we had originally named "him" Nila, that is until his first vet visit in NC. Rico is one of the sweetest most docile pets, but still has that funny spunky side. He is sure to put a smile on anyone's face who meets them. Not only is he the sweetest cat, but he is crazy intelligent. He taught himself to sit and give paw on demand just by watching our dogs. He had the best spirit and is just such a resilient cat. At a young age he was diagnosed with severe asthma. Rico fought severe asthma attacks until we could get a true diagnosis and put him on the correct medication. At this point we thought he was in the clear, but a few months ago he started having several UTI's and multiple urinary blockages. At this point he has gone through all treatments and surgery is not his final option. This is something we have to do as blockages are detrimental. My Rico boy is my world and I couldn't imagine my life without him. As he has already been in and out of the hospital the last few months I am still trying to find ways to pay those charges off and now with this new large expense for surgery I truly can not afford it.

Toby Castro

Toby Castro is a 7-year-old Siberian Husky in Tucson, AZ, who needs $840 for Mast Cell Tumor Removal.

Tucson, AZ

Toby was a gift from my husband. I've always wanted a Siberian Husky ever since I could remember. Toby turned out to be a very special loving ❤️ pet. No matter his size or how old he gets. Toby still believes he is the size of a small dog. Since he loves to cuddle with us. He trys squeezing himself next to us. No matter how much space their is. Toby has become a very important part of our lives. He so cute because he has this large round comfortable bed. But Toby chooses always to lay right next to us In whatever room we are in. Either next to the Bed, by our feet, on the kitchen floor while I am cooking, or in the living room while we all are watching TV. He is truly a family pet. Toby's thing is when one of us is ill. You can tell that he feels something is not right. He becomes attached to your hip. Wherever you go Toby will be right by your side. I think it's to make us feel better. Toby helps us take our mind off on how badly we are feeling. He always picks out his favorite toy's to play with. If we pick out the wrong toy. Toby will just go switch it. Just to funny. Toby has had alot of health issues. He's had multiple ear infections, multiple skin infections, he suffers from his Thyroid and he has special brand of food. Toby also suffers from a gastrointestinal stomach disorder. Toby now has a Mast Cell Tumor which the Vet. wants to do ASAP. We live on a fixed income. So those extra expenses that happen with our pets are always planned. For any major procedures involving our pets. We plan and save so we can take care of the procedure. Toby being diagnosed with Mast Cell Tumor and the Vet wants it done now.

Blitz andino

Blitz Andino is a 6-year-old Labrador retriever in Houston who needs $1,000 for Radiation Therapy.

Houston

This handsome pup came in to my life back when I was fresh out of highschool living with my brother on his couch. I’ve had him since he was a puppy literally about a month and a half and since then we had a bond he’s such a happy, outgoing pup. He is honestly the most human being dog ever when it comes to the attitude and the back talk aka snarls he truly makes my days so much better. Blitz honestly doesn’t care where to sleep if it’s not on his side of the bed which is the left or on the floor down by my feet. Or he will cuddle up on the rug right next to me never leaving my side. I would honestly say he talks in the funniest ways, he snarls to respond to questions or huffs and puffs when I don’t give him any snacks. He loves playing fetch and just passing the time walking. He is a very strange dog he sleeps on the pillows like a human. He has his own side on the bed and hates when someone is in it and he wants to lay down. He will look at whoever it is and snarl and give them daggers until they move. He absolutely loves tearing up stuffed animals and ripping the stuffing and squeakers out just for dad to come and clean up behind him. Unfortunately I came to find out that my best friend has a brain tumor that could possibly be a glioma. It’s located on his right frontal lobe and midway of his brain. Thankfully gulf coast veterinary specialists were able to find the tumor and give me an option with radiation therapy to give him the best possibly remaining time he has. Dr DiBernardi has been incredible with the clarity of it all. In all honesty I never imagined this happening because I kept up with all his records so when the seizure unexpectedly happened it did raise concerns. It being so sudden I didn’t save up enough money to cover everything plus it’s so extensive. Anything truly helps

Casper

Casper is a 3-year-old Short Haired Cat in Pleasant Valley, NY, who needs $2,000 for Leg Amputation.

Pleasant Valley, NY

Casper is a young homeless male who started hanging around our porch. He may have wandered off and got lost or was dropped off and wound up limping up on our porch. We trapped him and brought him to the vet. He has puncture wounds that were filled with pus. The infection has spread to the bone in his front leg andwill most likely be amputated. He will need more x-rays, antibiotics, and recovery time At this time Casper is living in a crate in my basement. He is being fed and watered and resting comfortably. We are praying his paws will heal. He has tested positive for feline leukemia but given the proper meds and finding a home where he will be the only guy, he will make a fabulous friend. Please consider donating for this poor fella so we can give him 2nd chance at life. Although Casper is in a lot of pain he is still a docile little guy. He hobbled up and down a flight of stairs in his condition to cry for help. He is starting to put some weight on one of his front paws. Hopefully this a good sign. He loves to be talked to and talks back in his soft little mews. Due to Caspers injuries, his vet bills will be mounting. We are only temporary guardians relying on help from community resources. We have spent about $500 of our money and $150.00 of donations from a rescue agency. We are still looking at $2800 more. Casper is currently being treated at Earth Angels in Wappingers Falls, NY. Thank you for any help you can give. We are just a friend to all living things. Although I have 3 dogs, 3 cats, a bird and a gerbil (all rescues) and cannot take on one more, I will not let this poor baby suffer. We will do our best to get Casper the medical attention he needs. Then we work on a home.

Lacey Lou

Lacey Lou is a 7-year-old Blue heeler mix Dog in Streetsboro , OH, who needs $2,000 for CHOP (chemo) protocol for Lymphoma.

Streetsboro, OH

The best decision I made in college was rescuing Lacey. She currently lives with me and her two siblings - Zeena and Percy. Lacey is the motherly pup. She is part blue heeler, so she has the prettiest coat. She can’t go a day without a ball and she will play until YOU fall asleep. Fetch is her favorite. So is cuddling, she is the best snuggle bug in the world. Lacey is 7 years old. And my BFF. She is family. She will have a conversation with you. She is so bossy 😂 Lacey and Zeena never are apart, they do everything together. Sometimes they let Percy join the pack - Lacey makes it very clear she’s the alpha. It scares me to think about Zeena not having her partner in crime. Zeena is 6 and Lacey helped me raise her. Lacey loves coming to work at my nursing home and visiting the Residents This dog will crack you up. She will grab your arm and make you pay attention to her. That doesn’t work? She’s going to nudge your face lol. This dog is so adamant about her balls, you can hide a ball and she will know where it is 3 months later. She amazes us. This dog is the first dog I raised on my own, in my first apartment at college - she and I had a lot of time together to teach one another First - shout out to MedVet Cleveland West for taking care of Lacey. Unfortunately, the late summer of 2020 was when Lacey was diagnosed with lymphoma. Lacey is my hyper, obedient, loyal, such a smart dog, ball-loving, squeaky toy-loving best friend. My 3 dogs are a pack. They are inseparable and I can’t picture life without any of them. They are my saving graces. And they rely on each other. It would mean the absolute world if we had some assistance to put Lacey thru her 3rd round of CHOP protocol. She had almost one year of remission for each round completed. She has quality of life. And she gives me quality of life…cancer sucks.

Saber

Saber is a 2-year-old Shepherd in Oklahoma City, OK, who needs $2,000 for Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy (TPLO) for a torn cruciate ligament.

Oklahoma City, OK

My name is Susan Martin. I live in Oklahoma City with my 80 year old mother and 20 year old daughter. We own the most wonderful dog that has rescued our family with nothing but unconditional love. He is very loyal and loving. Saber was found at the local animal shelter by my daughter. As soon as she saw him she fell in love. Saber has become ill. Injured I think somehow. We are here every day all day with Saber. He began to limp some time ago and the limping has gotten worse over time. He doesn't move, doesn't get up due to the pain in his hip. The pain is so bad he is drooling/ salivating. As a result he has lost his appetite and has difficulty eating. We have to bring his food to him, feeding him as he lay. I am a single mother taking care of my elderly mother as well. She requires 24 hour care which makes it difficult for me to work full time. To make extra money I Doordash and Uber. That way I can work at my own time and pace as needed around her schedule and needs. The issue we are having is a financial one. I agree that having a dog is a huge responsibility and can incur costs that are not expected for sure. But the cost of a surgery is something none of us thought of or prepared for. The doctor at the clinic said it would be around $3000 for the surgery. That amount of money is so out of our ability we don't know what to do at this point. Saber has a favorite friend name Kali, my daughter. Where she goes so does Saber. He entered our lives at just the right time to begin the healing process we all needed. He is the healing for us brought by an angel. He was meant for our family and I cant see myself living without him in our lives.

Macie

Macie is a 9-year-old Bichon Frise/Miniature Poodle in Monroe, MI, who needs $805 for Mass Removal and Dex Suppression Test.

Monroe, MI

I adopted my little Min Poodle/Bichon Frise from our local humane society. She was dropped off at the shelter 1 hour before I arrived. When I saw her nose poking through the cage bars, I just knew I had to adopt her! I was absolutely head over heals for her! I found out her owner passed away while filling out the application to adopt. Her name was ZsaZsa but to me she looked like a Macie Macie is 9 yrs old. She gets along great with everyone, Including my daughters pit mix, my mom’s schnauzer and the cats. She absolutely loves my great grandchildren. Because Macie is older, she really doesn’t play. I haven’t understood why yet though. She gets super excited at mealtimes, Loves to go outside for a little bit as she doesn’t tolerate heat well at all. I’m on SSI. My income is small. I’m saving up for Macie to have a wheelchair because she has a pinched nerve in her spine and by late afternoon to early evening, she will no longer walk and scoots on her bottom. I really need the help for her tests and surgery. Macie may have Cushing’s & needs an 8 hr for it. She has hair loss, excessive panting, always thirsty, reduced activity (could be why she doesn’t play) & just recently treated for an upper respiratory infection. She also has tumors in her abdomen that need to be removed and sent off to the lab. Dr Rob Comanescu is her veterinarian at River Raisin Vet Clinic in Monroe, Michigan. I’ll never forget when I heard Macie’s first bark. It was almost like a chirp. She can be a bit bossy when she wants me to pick her up. It’s quite funny, because I love to hear her bark and be sassy. She’s so adorable while she’s making her bed with her puppy cover, pulling it with her teeth and fluffing it with her paws.
