Tika needs knee surgery. Please help her walk again!

This is the message from her right knee surgery, we are now on her left knee surgery. Thank you for reading and the support during this difficult time. Lots of love from me and Tika too!!

A few days ago, while rough housing with her Sister, Shiloh, Tika’s knee went out and upon taking to her vet, I found out she had completely torn the cruciate ligament and meniscus… needing reconstructive knee surgery. We have pet insurance that will cover $2500, but we’ve already used $1000 of that for her appointment, sedation, X-rays, blood tests/ prep for surgery. Surgery alone will be roughly $8000, then there’s at least 3-4 months of rehabilitation and supplements/ pain medications.

It is difficult for me to ask for help… I spent tens of thousands on Mango without asking for help (who seemed to be accident and illness prone- thank god for pet insurance) but this time around, I don’t even have enough on a credit card to cover the costs of surgery and rehab for poor Tika. She’s in pain, so I want to get her booked in for surgery as soon as possible. If you can’t donate, please share this post. If you’d rather not donate through GoFundMe, please contact me for my email address or I’ll find out if money can be sent directly to the surgeon’s office or to her veterinarian clinic.

Tika is a 5 year old rescue from Vancouver Island. She had a rough start to life, but it’s never stopped her to live life to the fullest!

Tika is my heart. She’s goofy, she has a character and personality all of her own; she makes me laugh and smile everyday. She’s a cuddler and then independent when she wants to be. She is my everything.

My dear friends, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am grateful beyond words for any support we may receive. Love and light to all.
