Please help, lifesaving surgery needed

happy clam 2

My name is Happy Clam, because I am happy as a clam! I am only a few months old and happy to be alive and safe from harm, but I have a brain disorder and need help, FAST!

When Furkids rescued me from a high-kill animal control, they thought I was an "Applehead Chihuahua" because of my rather large head. It would have been nice if that was the case. However, I actually have hydrocephalus  a.k.a. water on the brain. Thank goodness Furkids saved me! They will do everything in their power to get me the surgery I desperately need to survive. 

Spinal fluid is building up in my brain and I need a shunt installed to move the fluid to my tummy. If I don't get this soon I could develop permanent brain and nerve damage. Otherwise my brain and my nerves could be damaged forever and I am at risk of seizures and death. I am just a puppy, and have so much life to live. I also have a soft spot on my head that will never go away, so my foster family has to be extra careful around my head.

Thank goodness for Furkids! They made an appointment for me to see a special doctor at the University of Georgia's School of Veterinary Medicine. I'm actually there today, Thursday May 29, with my foster mom getting tests and bloodwork while they develop a plan to save my life!

The tests, including a special MRI, and surgery will cost close to $7,000! Furkids cares for hundreds of homeless animals and this surgery is an unexpected cost for them. They won't let me down, I know that; but you can help them. Your donation will make a huge difference - to my life, and to all the other homeless pets that Furkids saves!

Will you help me get better? Please donate now!
