dreamsoffools: dreamsoffools: dreamsoffools: This is Brian! He’s only a baby and used to be a stray until he found a new home at the stables, and he’s honestly the friendliest little cat I’ve ever met. He doesn’t meow, he peeps at you like a baby bird, and he is a total glutton for food and attention. As you can see in the first photo, he likes to put his paws up and hug you :)This morning he was peeping away, incredibly bloated and unable to urinate and we knew we had a problem. We struggled to find a vet that would see him on a sunday for less than £120 just for the appointment and when we finally found one we got the news that his bladder would burst and kill him if he wasn’t treated that day. The treatment to clear his urinary tract was £200 and the treatment to keep this from happening to him again is a extra £400 on top of that.I am a student and the other ladies at the stables cannot afford to spend this much money so it seemed that the only option was to put Brian down, but just then he walked up to me and popped his paws on my shoulders and touched his nose to mine and I couldn’t let it happen. So he went into surgery earlier today and is now awake and already raising hell and trying to rip out his IV. This little boy has so much life in him. At the moment I am looking to raise the £200 to pay the current vet bills and hopefully we can raise a little more to help us on the way to making sure he won’t suffer from this again and be in need of more life saving surgery.If you would like to help Brian out please consider doing one of the following!1) donate directly to his treatment using indiegogo2) commission me! I am doing emergency sketch commissions for Brian ad you can find info and pricing here (all payments through paypal)3) reblog this post!! Spreading awareness really helps us out <3Thank you so much if you do any of these things! Brian is such a fabulous little cat and he deserves a chance at a full and happy life!(Any posts related to Brian will be tagged as savethelifeofbrian :]) Guys you have done a phenomenal job and I can’t believe we’ve raised over half the money we need in less than 24 hours!! You guys are amazing <3 Thank you so much! The vet is going to ring me in an hour or so to let me know how he’s doing so I’ll update you all then xx Ahhhhhh you guys are amazing! Thank you so much for the support, we have reached our goal in less than 24 hours! Brian is doing well and apparently is peeping away making a right old racket and letting all the nurses know that he’s feeling better :) With your support we’ve been able to cover his vet bills and start the process of getting his blood tested, which will tell us more about what happened to him and if he has any problems with his kidneys that might make this happen to him again. He is due out on Thursday unless the blood tests show a problem with his kidneys, but we’ll cross that bridge if and when we get to it :)As Brian has done much better than the vet expected him to and doesn’t need expensive fluids and drugs to keep him happy at the moment, we’re going to be using the rest of that money to get him microchipped, and if he needs special food to help prevent UTI. I’m going to be drawing a little comic of the Life of Brian to thank you all for your help, we really are so grateful to you for helping this gorgeous boy to get a second chance at life :) It won’t be for a few weeks as I have uni deadlines coming up but I’ll keep you guys posted here on when it’s ready :)Seriously, thank you guys so much <3 This is why I love tumblr, you guys have helped save this little man’s life and I can’t wait to get him home! I’ll post some photos of him when he gets out of the vets so you can see his little face.On the off chance that the indiegogo campaign gets any more money donated to it, it will all go towards making the little man happy; treats and toys and beds and checkups with the vet :) -- source link
