Help Mike Get Boo Emergency Butt Surgery!
Donation protected

Hi folks! My boy Boo is in desperate need of surgery and I am in a bit of a bind with the price tag on this life-saving procedure. Boo has been receiving care for his anal glands since he was 4. He is 9 years young, but he no longer benefits from having his glands expressed. They are now impacted and infected. The veterinarian has informed me that this is not optional, and that Boo is in pain.
So, in the hopes that I can bring enough people together to save my very best friend in the world, I came here, in the hopes that friends, family, and kind-hearted Internet strangers would see my Boo finally completely healed and ready for many more years of adventures and companionship.
As for me, I am Mike Van Slyke, your friendly neighborhood retired stagehand. My income is limited and I myself am awaiting treatment to potentially allow me to return to work. In the mean time, while I wait for my joint replacement surgery (or surgeries), I'd like to get Boo back to his friendly, lively and vivacious self.
Thank you for reading all this. You can message me if you have questions, I am glad to respond to anyone. The total cost, including boarding Boo after his operation, will come to about $2500, not including follow-up nor transportation from my rural home.
Surgery: $1500
Boarding: $500
Followup and Medication: $500
