A Split-Second Accident Put Draco's Life in Danger—Now He Needs Your Help

WHITESTONE, NY • NYC Second Chance Rescue

Draco has already beaten the odds once. Now, he's fighting through another life-threatening emergency. Nearly a year ago, NYC Second Chance Animal Rescue saved Draco from the New York City Animal Care Centers (ACC) after he developed a serious upper respiratory infection. The municipal shelter didn't have the resources to provide the medical care he desperately needed, so the rescue stepped in, giving him the chance to heal and start over. Draco recovered beautifully and settled into a loving foster home, where he has been safe, happy, and deeply loved ever since. Then, in a split second, everything changed. After accidentally swallowing a piece of a rubber yoga mat, Draco's foster family rushed him to the emergency hospital as soon as they realized what had happened. Veterinarians explained that the rubber material could absorb stomach fluids, expand, and create a life-threatening intestinal blockage if it wasn't removed immediately. The veterinary team first attempted to retrieve the object using a minimally invasive procedure, hoping to spare Draco from major surgery. Unfortunately, the procedure was unsuccessful, leaving the team with no choice but to perform emergency abdominal surgery to remove the foreign object and save his life. Draco is now recovering, but this unexpected emergency has created overwhelming veterinary expenses. NYC Second Chance Animal Rescue never hesitated to approve the lifesaving care Draco needed. They made the decision every rescue hopes they can make—that cost would never stand in the way of saving one of their animals. Now they need your help. Emergency diagnostics, anesthesia, specialized procedures, abdominal surgery, hospitalization, pain management, and follow-up care come at a significant cost, placing an unexpected financial burden on the rescue. Will you help Draco recover from this frightening ordeal? Every tax-deductible donation, no matter the amount, will go directly toward Draco's emergency medical care and recovery. If you're unable to donate today, sharing his story could help him reach someone who can. This was a heartbreaking accident that can happen even in the most loving and attentive homes. Draco's foster family acted immediately, giving him the best possible chance to survive. Draco has already overcome so much in his young life. Thanks to the compassion of his rescue, he was given a second chance once before. With your support, he can recover from this emergency and continue the happy life he was finally beginning to enjoy.

A Small Dog With a Big Fight Ahead—Help Misty Beat Mammary Cancer

Wakefield, MA • Paws 4 A Cure

🐾 Paws 4 A Cure Needs Your Help Misty has been a beloved member of her family since she was just two months old. Adopted around Valentine's Day in 2019, this tiny Chihuahua quickly stole everyone's heart with her sweet personality and loving nature. For seven wonderful years, she has been more than a pet—she has been family. Now, Misty is facing one of the biggest challenges of her life. After going into heat, her family noticed a lump on one of her lower mammary glands. They rushed her to the veterinarian, where they received heartbreaking news: Misty has a mammary tumor that needs to be surgically removed. To give her the best chance at a healthy future, her veterinarian also recommends that she be spayed during the procedure to reduce the risk of future complications. Misty has already begun treatment, receiving medication to help shrink the tumor, but surgery cannot wait. The procedure is expected to cost approximately $706, and her family is hoping to raise the remaining $400 needed to move forward with her lifesaving care. Will you help give Misty the chance to keep living the happy life she deserves? Every tax-deductible donation, no matter the size, brings Misty one step closer to surgery.

"We love her so much and just want to get her the care she needs. We would be so grateful to anyone who is able to help." Misty still has so much life left to live—more cuddles, more adventures, and more memories to make with the family who adores her.
