🚨 URGENT DONATION APPEAL: TIKI NEEDS US! 🚨
Last week, we brought Tiki in for her spay. She’s a very unsocialized girl who has been living with her mom, grandma and uncle in an area where some kind humans have been keeping an eye on the family.
After her spay, we returned her to her familiar surroundings. But when we went back to check on her we knew she wasn’t well and brought her back in.
We initially suspected spay complications. She wasn’t eating, her breathing was abnormal, and she was getting worse by the day.
We’ve tried IV fluids, steroids and antibiotics, but nothing has turned things around.
So this morning, we made the trip down to Kingston and brought her to Island Mobile, who have been absolutely fantastic in helping us investigate what’s happening.
Everything is pointing towards suspected Gramaxone poisoning.
Based on the timeline and what we’re learning, we suspect Tiki may have been exposed shortly before her spay. She appeared fine throughout the procedure, but began declining afterwards. We fear the poisoning was already happening, and we simply didn’t know.
We are now at the hospital, where Tiki is receiving further treatment.
The recommendation has been euthanasia. But we’ve recently seen some incredible survival stories, and we’re not ready to give up on this girl just yet.
We’re bringing her home to continue fighting for her.
We want to give Tiki every possible chance at a life beyond the streets, a life where she can be safe, loved and never have to worry about where her next meal is coming from.
BUT WE NEED HELP. DESPERATELY.
We need donations to cover:
🐾 Today’s hospital bill
🐾 The medications and supplies needed to continue treatment at home.
We know everyone is stretched. We know there are so many animals needing help. But if you can spare even a few dollars, it will make a difference.
Please, please help us give Tiki a fighting chance. Every donation, every share, every little bit of support means something right now.
