🏥 GYPSY UPDATE: SHE NEEDS US, AND SO DO OUR AGING RESCUE ANIMALS.🐾

We have some good news to share: Gypsy’s pancreatitis has improved, but she still has another serious condition we’ll be managing for the rest of her life.

Gypsy has a collapsed trachea, which means her windpipe weakens and narrows instead of staying open like it should. This can make it difficult to breathe and cause frightening coughing episodes, or even respiratory distress. She will need a quiet, low-stress, low-activity lifestyle.

We are relieved she’s improving, but the financial reality is frightening.

Our rescue animals are getting older, and with age comes more medical needs, more medications, more tests, more emergencies, and more expensive veterinary care.

These animals deserve to grow old safely, surrounded by love. Not have their care limited by a lack of funds. 😔

Yet we are constantly struggling to raise enough to cover even the basics. When an emergency hits, we’re left feeling desperate and panicked, trying to figure out how to pay for the care an animal urgently needs when donations are already stretched so thin.

Our veterinarian has been incredibly kind and compassionate, working with us wherever possible. We are so grateful. But veterinary care costs money, and the people providing it deserve to be paid. Good intentions and grateful hearts simply cannot pay medical bills.

‼️We need your help‼️
Not just for Gypsy, but for every aging animal in our care who will eventually need extra medical attention.

Please consider making a donation toward our veterinary and emergency medical fund. Every single dollar helps us provide treatment, medication, testing, and the chance for these precious souls to enjoy their golden years in comfort.

If you can’t donate, please share this post. You never know who might see it and be able to help.

They spent their lives needing someone to care. We promised we would be that someone.
Please help us keep that promise.❤️🐾

If you missed the updates…

‼️THIRD UPDATE‼️ She has pancreatitis and a collapsed trachea. Normally, they’d hospitalize her through the weekend, but she’s been a difficult patient, so she was sent home with a list of instructions and meds, and red flags for the potential need to revisit the ER. Please continue to share the need!!! We have spent approximately $1200 so far. 😩 We are desperate for donations. We will give an update tomorrow.‼️

‼️SECOND UPDATE‼️ Currently at regular vet for xrays, labs, etc. Will update again as soon as I hear something. PLEASE keep sharing. This is all adding up quickly! 😭‼️

‼️ER UPDATE‼️ Ultrasound, fluids and medication. A lot of air in her abdomen, but nothing definitive yet. Taking to regular vet at 8am.

🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘🆘

‼️‼️‼️We have a vet emergency‼️‼️‼️

As with most senior and medically fragile animals, medical needs can be very unpredictable.

We have one that needs to be at the vet NOW.

Unfortunately, these things often happen when our personal vet is closed. We can’t make her wait until 8am. We need to make the trip to the ER vet 30 minutes away!

If you happen to see this (it’s 5:30am EST), and you can help us with the expense, we’d be so grateful!

WE CANNOT AFFORD THIS!!

PLEASE SHARE if you are unable to help at this time.

We will update as soon as we are able!
Our biggest fear is bloat. 😩😭

We are here getting diagnostics and meds that will, hopefully, keep her comfortable until we can get her into our regular vet.

Please continue to share. 🙏 We just paid for his meds at almost $200. We desperately need consistent donations. I’m not sure why we struggle so much to receive consistent support, but it is what it is, so please excuse our repetition.

We need help, and sharing, and hoping that someone that can help us sees this post is all we have. 

🐾 Bowie Needs Help Again ❤️

Just under a year ago, someone sent us a Facebook post of a familiar face.

We knew that face immediately.
It was Bowie.

We rehabilitated Bowie as a mangy little puppy.
He was eventually adopted and passed on to another home, but somehow, after everything he’d been through, he ended up on Facebook again.

We immediately made the connection and brought him back into our care.

Not long after Bowie returned to us, we noticed that he was limping, so we took him to the vet, and that's when we learned that our sweet boy needed double TPLO surgery.

Unfortunately, the estimated cost is around **$10,000**, an amount that is simply beyond what our sanctuary can afford right now.

The reality is, we often struggle just to collect enough donations to keep food in everyone's bowls, and purchase the everyday supplies our animals need. We certainly don't have $10,000 available for orthopedic surgery.

So, in the meantime, we have been doing everything we can to keep Bowie comfortable with pain medication, anti-inflammatories and limited activity. Because he needs to remain on these medications, he also requires regular lab work to make sure they are not causing problems with his liver, kidneys, or other organs.

It's now time for his 6 month labs, along with his rabies vaccination and wellness exam. We expect to spend a few hundred dollars today at minimum.

We know times are hard for so many people right now, but if you are in a position to help Bowie, any amount, no matter how small, would be greatly appreciated.

$5. $10. $20. Every little bit adds up.

And if you aren't able to donate, please share Bowie's story. A share costs nothing and could put his story in front of someone who is able to help.

Bowie found his way back to us once.
Now we want to make sure he knows that he is home and that we will continue to take care of him.

🙏Please help us help Bowie get the care he needs.

Thank you, as always, for loving our animals and standing beside our sanctuary.

We couldn't do this without you. ❤️🐾
