Help Rhino Recover From Emergency Surgery

This week has been incredibly tough for our sweet boy, Rhino.

On Sunday morning, Rhino was visibly unwell, and had vomited the previous night’s dinner on the floor. We cared for him as much as we could, until we realized he could not stomach most of his food. Eventually, he started refusing food and water. The next evening, we had to bring Rhino to an emergency vet. X-rays revealed a blockage in his digestive system, and he was admitted for overnight monitoring.

Unfortunately, on Tuesday, we found out that the blockage still wasn’t moving. Surgery became necessary, and on Wednesday, Rhino underwent the procedure. Thankfully, the surgery went well, and he stayed another night for recovery.

We received a call from the vet today. Rhino looks to be feeling much better, but he's now experiencing some complications, including bloody vomit and stool. The vet has recommended keeping him for another day to ensure he gets the best care possible. The team at the animal hospital has been incredible, and we're so grateful for the care they're giving Rhino.

As you can imagine, the vet bills are piling up quickly with each day of care, tests, and the emergency surgery. If you’re able to contribute to this fundraiser, it would mean the world to us. Every little bit helps and goes directly towards covering Rhino’s medical expenses and recovery. Thank you for your support during this time. If you are unable to donate, please share this GoFundMe!
