COMMUNITY SUPPORT REQUEST!

My friend Nate found Ms. Maple on the side of the highway at the beginning of February, and on 3/29 she surprised him with a litter of 9 puppies! Vets told Nate not to worry about Maple's growing size, so now he is playing catch up with her plans. All of the puppies are happy and healthy, but he needs some help taking care of them before they can be adopted out.

They all need to be vaccinated, and feeding a litter of 9 is no easy task. The vet bill will end up being roughly $500-1,000 for vaccinations, and they will eat at least $70 worth of food every week once they are weened.

These magical surprise puppies are named Ruby, Jasper, Kya(nite), Onyx, Opal, Malachite, Moon, Rose, and (Peri)Dot

Any little bit helps!

UPDATE: On 4/12 Maple had a prolapse and had to go to the emergency vet for treatment. That led to a vet bill of $1,100 and greater need for support for the puppies.
