Help Maverick Get the Senior Care He Deserves

An urgent fundraiser for Maverick, Sid’s beloved 16-year-old Pomeranian

We’re the Pom Fam — and we’re rallying for one of our own.

Our dear friend Sid (aka PunkMyPets) is facing one of the hardest things a pet parent ever will: preparing to say goodbye to his soul dog, Maverick.

Maverick — known to many as Pom Cruise — has been by Sid’s side for 16 incredible years. He’s been more than a pet. He’s a best friend, a studio sidekick, a living legend, and the heart of everything Sid has created in this community.

But now, Maverick’s time is short. His health has declined rapidly, and he’s in need of immediate senior care, comfort, and support in these final days.

Why We're Asking for Help

Sid is doing everything he can to give Maverick peace and dignity — but he can’t do it alone.

We’re raising $3,500 to help cover:

Outstanding veterinary bills

Comfort care to ease Maverick’s final days

Eventual cremation and funerary expenses

Temporary housing so Sid can focus on Maverick’s care in a calm and quiet space

This is about showing up — not just for Maverick, but for Sid, who has given so much of himself to this community.

If You’ve Ever Loved a Dog Like Family...

Then you know what Sid is going through. The heartbreak. The helplessness. The ache of knowing time is running out — and the desperate hope to make it just a little easier for the one who’s been there for you through everything.

Let’s be there for them, the way they’ve been there for us.

From Our Hearts to Theirs

Maverick gave Sid unconditional love and a reason to keep creating through life’s chaos. Now, as they face this final chapter, we want to give back — not just with money, but with love, presence, and care.

Because every dog deserves to cross the rainbow bridge wrapped in peace, not worry. And every pet parent deserves to know they’re not alone in that moment.

With love and solidarity,

Your Pom Fam
