Marcel is my very special boy – a seven-year-old Maltese Shih Tzu who has filled my life (and the lives of so many others) with sunshine, cuddles, and endless love. He has the gentlest soul and a way of making everyone he meets smile.

Recently, Marcel had to undergo unexpected emergency surgery – including a splenectomy and surgery on his lung. It was lifesaving, but also incredibly costly, with bills reaching around $20,000.

I never imagined being in this position, but I know how much Marcel means not only to me but to everyone who knows him. Any contribution, no matter the size, will go directly toward covering his surgery and recovery costs.

I completely understand there are many important causes in the world, and I am so deeply grateful for anyone who chooses to support Marcel on his healing journey. Your kindness means the world to us ❤️

Thank you for helping give my little guy the chance to keep spreading love and cuddles for many more years to come.
