My poor baby Trigger has an infection that creates abscesses and is rotting away his teeth. If we don't get him this surgery soon, the infection will move to his gums and eventually his jaw bone. He's stuck in California until he gets his surgery, before he can finally fly out to me in Hawaii due to the strict quarantine laws.

Being apart and in constant pain, even with his antibiotics, Trigger is barely eating and is no longer his lovey-dovey playful self. Instead, he hides all day and has to be brought his food just to encourage him to eat. It's heartbreaking to see him like this, and I worry every day about his health and happiness.

The funds raised will help cover the costs of his surgery, vaccine procedures, medications, the Hawaiian law-mandated quarantine, and his flight tickets so we can finally be together again. I can't lose my baby—he means the world to me, but I just can't afford these procedures alone. Any help to get Trigger healthy and home would mean everything to us.
