Help Reunite me with my babies - 5 weeks without my Pets :(

My name is Brightnye, and I never imagined I’d be here, writing this with tears in my eyes, completely out of options, begging strangers for help.

For 5 long weeks, my babies, Buddy, Storm, and Sky, have been trapped in holding.

They don’t know where I’ve gone.

They don’t understand why I haven’t come back.

And it’s killing me.

I came to Canada with the dream of starting over, and I worked so hard to plan everything, to get us here safely. But life unravelled fast.

Unexpected costs, heartbreak, and being isolated in a new country meant I couldn’t afford to bring them with me right away.

Still, I’ve been working day and night at any job I can find, just trying to scrape together enough.

But no matter how hard I try, I’m falling short.

And the days keep slipping by.

Every day, I wake up knowing they’re waiting for me, confused, alone, and scared.

And every day, the kennel adds $160 more to the bill.

Now I’m staring down a total of $15,000 and a terrifying deadline:

If I can’t raise the money in the next 2 weeks… they’ll be rehomed. Forever.

Please… these are not just pets.

They are everything to me.

Buddy, my golden retriever, has been my rock through everything. He senses when I’m breaking and just leans his whole body against mine.

Storm, my cat, was rescued and finally learned to trust me. He follows me from room to room, always needing to be close.

Sky, my quiet little soul, curls into my arms like a baby. She doesn’t open up to just anyone. She only ever opened up to me.

I can’t sleep. I can’t breathe properly knowing they’re locked away and I’m not there.

I’ve sold what I could. Taken every odd job. Called every contact. Tried everything.

I’m not someone who asks easily, but this has broken me.

I’m desperate for any compassion.

If you can spare even a few dollars, it truly matters more than you know.

And if you can’t give, please share this with someone who might.

I just need one miracle.

One moment of kindness.

One last push to bring them home before it’s too late.

Please help me bring Buddy, Storm, and Sky home.

Let them be with the person who’s loved them their whole lives.

Let me keep my little family together.

From the deepest part of my heart,

thank you for reading, sharing, donating, or just caring.
