Hi! My name is Nicole and I'm looking for help to raise funds to support my dear friend Emma in paying for Raffi's vet bills.

This little fellow has had a tough go over the past few months - from being stuck in a fire in our home for over 15 hours, to falling out of a window in his new home causing internal bleeding in his kidneys and thorax, to finding out he has kidney disease along with a pretty severe kidney infection after being brought to emergency for the window incident. So far the vet bills have amounted to $2100 and will most likely surpass $3000 after future visits which are scheduled to include X-rays and medication.

For anyone that knows Raffi, this insatiable little guy is the sweetest bean you'll find, even when he's neck deep munching on your coffee beans. We would love to see him back to his old, food terrorizing self.

We also, so dearly, want to help Emma in this time. Money is a scary thing and these unexpected costs are not easy for anyone to cover on their own. That being said, please only donate if you have the capacity. We appreciate you taking the time to read a small bit of Raffi and Emma's story.
