Help us get Ringo life-saving heart surgery!
Donation protected
Thank you for visiting our fundraising page! We urgently need to raise money for heart surgery to save our kitten Ringo's life. More details below - but first, here is Ringo to say thank you:
Steve and I adopted this gorgeous little nugget from our local animal shelter a few weeks ago, hoping to give him a long happy life. Unfortunately, when we took him for a routine checkup at the vet, we found out that Ringo has a heart defect called a PDA. Without treatment, this condition will be fatal within 1-2 years and he will slowly die of heart failure.
The good news is, the PDA is totally fixable with surgery and then Ringo can go on to have a completely normal life!
The bad news is, the cost of his tests and surgery are going to total about $8,000.

Unfortunately we just don’t have the means to cover all the costs ourselves, but we also can’t bear the thought of letting Ringo go and giving up without a fight. To that end, we would be so grateful for absolutely anything you could spare, even if it’s just a few bucks or helping us spread word about the campaign.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
