Hi, I’m Hollie and I’m raising funds to help aid my mum and family to cover vet bills.

Our beautiful French bulldog, Cleo, is only 3 years old and a much loved member of our family She brings us constant joy, comfort and laughter, and we can’t imagine life without her.

Recently, Cleo was diagnosed with Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD), a serious and extremely painful condition. We were suddenly faced with a heartbreaking decision: either put Cleo to sleep or give her a chance by going ahead with urgent surgery. As she is our family pet and still so young, we couldn’t give up on her.

Cleo has now undergone surgery, and while it was necessary to save her life, the veterinary bills currently total £8,500. This does not include the additional costs for recovery equipment, medication and ongoing physiotherapy she will need as part of her rehabilitation. We are not expecting or asking for the full amount to be covered — we are simply hoping for as much support as possible to help ease the financial strain during Cleo’s recovery.

We are doing everything we can to help Cleo heal and regain her mobility, but the costs have been overwhelming. Any contribution, no matter how small, will go directly towards Cleo’s ongoing care. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this page would mean just as much to us.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read Cleo’s story and for any kindness, support or generosity you can offer. We are hopeful that with continued care, Cleo can go on to live the happy and comfortable life she deserves. ** cleo couldn’t be insured due to previous health concerns**
