Dear Friends,
Today I’m bringing you Saint’s story in partnership with our local Bloomington, Indiana animal shelter.
Saint requires three extensive orthopedic surgeries. He needs one hip procedure and two knee procedures. The veterinarian who can perform them has generously offered to complete all three for the cost of two. Even with that discount, the total remains nearly 10,000 dollars.
Having these needed surgeries would change Saint’s life and also advance our shared goal of improving outcomes for special needs pets.
Through our work at the BUB Fund, we’re working to show that we can successfully treat complex cases, document and share practical protocols, and build a network of adopters and fosters who are confident caring for animals with special needs. Each success helps shift community expectations, encourages others to follow this model, and makes humane care more achievable for pets who need it most.
Whether or not you’re able to give, simply taking a moment to read and share Saint’s story makes a real difference. If you are in a position to donate, any amount helps bring him closer to the surgeries he needs. If donating isn’t possible today, sharing this appeal with a friend or community group is a meaningful way to support him.
We couldn’t do this life-changing work without you; we’re so grateful for you,
Stacy + the Lil BUB Family
