    Peppy ~ Chihuahua in severe pain FUNDS RAISED

    Guys ~ I know everyone is short of cash these days with all the PT'ers in need, but if you have any extra, could you consider donating to Peppy's case on IMOM?

    Please help us save Peppy. There's no time to build a formal Web page for him, so please go to IMOM's donation page. Mark your gift "GF - Peppy Naja." (Dedicated Donation)


    From IMOM's site:

    Diagnosis: Urinary Blockage
    Estimated: $ 1327.50
    Applicant Contribution: Applicant can contribute "very little"
    Total needed: We need to raise $ 1327.50
    Spayed or Neutered?: Yes
    Caseworker: Kyle | [email protected]



    Peppy has a stone in his Penile Urethra. The hospital says he could become obstructed at any time, so he needs surgery right away.

    I had called the vet this morning and they told me Peppy is in such pain that he screams when he urinates. He is on pain meds but every time he goes, that stone could move. They are closed over the weekend but feel this is urgent enough that the doctor will come into surgery once they know funds are raised. Please help us help Peppy. His dad is a senior, and Peppy is his whole world.

    Thanks in advance for your help and support.

    Update from IMOM: Matching Challenge!!!

    We have a challenge. A donor has offered to match the rest of the donations needed to get to All Funds Raised. We need $385 more in donations, which will be matched and then Peppy can have surgery.

    I just sent in a donation. Poor little guy. I feel terrible for him. Thanks so much for keeping us posted. I hope he can get the surgery. If they're desperate for more donations and he can't get the surgery, let me know.

    I was wondering if IMOM has a section where it reports on what is going on with Peppy and how he is doing?

    Once the funding goal has been reached, the pet's thread is moved into the All Funds Have Been Raised section. If you go to the link, you'll see Peppy's thread. Several of us have been requesting updates from Peppy's family.

    Unfortunately, we may never hear from Peppy's family. Kyle (Peppy's caseworker) contacted the vet and posted the following:

    Hi everyone. I have received an e-mail from the vet's office saying Peppy had his surgery, is home and doing fine.

    I apologize for not updating sooner, but I've been swamped with my day job, waiting to hear from the vet, and Peppy's owner is apparently not an online person.

    It is always regrettable and frustrating when a pet owner - despite being informed that they are required to be here - doesn't show up.

    But you saved Peppy! And for that, I'm sure this sweet little one is very grateful.

    Thank you, as always, for your love for the animals, your generosity, and your support for IMOM.

    Glad to hear that he is home and recovering. I hope the little one does well. I am embarrassed to tell you how long I spent on Sunday evening stumbling around the site trying to find some updated information on him. Sometimes the people who are most in need of IMOM's financial services may not be in a position financially or health-wise (I am thinking along the lines of traveling to the library) to have access to the internet on a frequent basis. Do they offer other ways for people to become involved or communicate with them?

    Just good to know that Peppy's surgery was successful which it sounds as if it was.

    That's really a good point, Joyce. I'm embarrassed to say that I never thought of that.

    More hugs, kisses , and, belly rubs for Peppy !!!!!
