This and a mastodon account are the only social media I have.

Sadly, I’m in an awful position where I have to find funds for a lifesaving procedure for my boy, or have him euthanized.

Of course I’m doing what I think is best, and have a fundraiser on GoFundMe.

Is there somewhere that this would be best posted, to get visibility and potentially help? We’re at our wit’s end.

    So sorry you are going through this. Does your vet have financing available? Or more info about local resources in the area?

      Our usual vet of 15 years is really good, and they would work with us.

      This is an emergency practice he’s in right now, and if we can get the ball rolling, he’ll be transferred to a specialist in Bristol on Monday.

      To be clear, we have insurance, the same as we do for all our animals. This is just a shit situation where we’ve had to go to an emergency vet, out of hours, and the level of care required has blown through the insurance cover like it was nothing.

      For what it’s worth, I appreciate you replying. It feels like a living nightmare and it’s just nice to have people engaged. So thank you.

    You found a need! You should make and moderate a community. Maybe " fundraising" or something like that
