Gavin, the quirky stone tapping bengal from Tiktok needs your help. (Anyone unfamiliar with Gavin's story can read it here Gavin's story)
Gavin's first hip surgery went well and he was soon busy jumping and doing his crab runs. But sadly, now Gavin faces a new challenge. In addition to his many other health issues Gavin started coughing and further investigations indicate a possible asthma diagnosis which inevitably means further treatment and vet bills NB: The diagnosis has now been confirmed.
Gill - Gavin's pet parent - is consequently struggling to ensure Gavin
gets the best care possible but has limited resources; the pet insurance for the year has been used to pay for
investigative procedures and scans and has no other resources to turn to. Gill is incurring mounting debt to fund Gavin's care which will be long term and on going.
As you would have read from Gavin's story Gill's husband passed away leaving her solely responsible for Gavin's care which, due to Gavin's numerous health issues requires specific treatments, all of which are costly.
Consequently resources have been stretched to beyond breaking point.
