Hi furiends.

I hope this message finds you well.

Sadly, I’m not in tip top condition these days.

Many of you know that I have had some health issues over the past few months.

I’ve been to the vet multiple times since February.

They’ve run a battery of tests on me to determine that I have a sickly gall bladder.

I’ve followed all their treatment recommendations set up in a tier structure from least to most invasive.

It was my hope that diet & medication would lower my liver enzymes & flush the sludge from my bile duct & gall bladder.

That didn’t turn out to be the case unfortunately.

The vet said that my gall bladder remains poorly & as such is at great risk for obstruction & possible rupture, so it needs to be removed to prevent a worst case scenario.

The surgery is quite a serious one with a night spent in the intensive care unit.

My pawrents have spent a considerable amount of money already & are now faced with an estimate in the exorbitant range of 3 to 4 thousand dollars.

They decided to establish a GoFundMe on the chance that some of my pals might want to donate a few bucks to supplement their contribution.

I know that inflation is challenging everyone all over the globe, so your healing vibes are appreciated as well.

It’d also be cool if you could share this GFM in your stories to help spread the news.

The surgery date is May 24.

Thank you.

All my love, Ari. ♥️xo
