maiyowl: maiyowl: PLEASE HELP SAVE BELLY BUTTON Recently my budgie, Belly Button, laid her first (unfertilized) egg out of a clutch. Even with all the preparations I’ve made for her, it came out a bloody mess, and she became extremely lethargic and unresponsive after. I rushed her to emergency care ASAP only to learn that another egg is trapped inside her vent. She hasn’t been able to lay it, is showing signs of being in pain, and may have to undergo surgery in order to get it removed; a procedure she has 25% chance of surviving. I’m extremely upset and afraid. The vet gave me supplements and painkillers to bolster her immune system in an effort to help her pass it, but it’s not a guarantee. Just those alone have left me with a hefty charge. Other than the egg binding situation, she is in perfect health. Normally, I’m able to budget properly for regular veterinary care, but this took me by surprise. I don’t get paid until next week, and even then, my whole paycheck won’t be enough to cover the costs. I need at least $475, and I need it soon as possible. This is the first post I’ve ever made asking for financial help on tumblr. I hate to resort to this, but I’m swallowing my pride hoping it will save my baby. People may think “oh, she’s just a parakeet” but this bird is one of the only sources of happiness in my life. She’s so affectionate and smart. Just last month she started mimicking “baby bird” in the cutest voice you’ll ever hear. I’m crying my eyes out in the vet’s office as I type this, and I can’t set up a GoFundMe properly on mobile. My paypal is maiyo_saiga@yahoo.com, and you can donate by clicking here. Please, I’m begging whoever may read this. If you can’t donate, please reblog. I don’t want to lose my baby bird. THE LINK HAS EXPIRED FOR WHATEVER REASON. YOU CAN ALSO DONATE BY GOING TO MY BLOG AND CLICKING THE BUTTON. Thank you so much to everyone who has donated. So far I have $185 raised, I don’t know how I’ll ever repay this much kindness -- source link
