Update: As of this afternoon, we have only received $70.00 in donations towards Dude's bill.
We do everyrhing possible to keep costs down as to not have to constantly ask for donations. We asked the ER last night if they could make him stable enough that he could be transferred to another (more affordable) vet in the morning. We were told that he was crucial and the procedure couldn't wait. They required that 75% of the low estimate be paid to start treatment. There was $57.00 in the Rescue's acct. I paid $2,000.00 from my personal acct. so Dude could get help. Luckily, I had it, but those funds have to be replaced.
Please share and please donate!

We have an emergency!!
Our cat, Dude, is at Mason Dixon Pet ER, with a suspected urinary blockage. He is lethargic and in a great deal of pain, and they are trying to help him.
Dude is one of several pets that we have in our Senior Pet Pairing Program. We place unadopted (mostly senior) pets with senior citizens. If financially possible, the pet is adopted by the senior. If not, they become permanent fosters in the rescue. This helps the pet physically leave the rescue to free up space, and to provide much needed companionship and love to a senior citizen.
Dude and his FIP survivor brother, Freddie, are very bonded, and both went to live together (yay!) as permanent fosters. They are very loved and happy there, and their foster dad is beside himself with worry!
Donations are at an all time low. We need your help NOW to save Dude!!
The estimate from Mason Dixon is below ($3,500.00 - $5,300.00!!).
PLEASE donate to help our boy and please share!
