Help for Mr. Sam
Donation protected
Mr. Sammy has been in my life since he was first born. I found him and his litter underneath my house in Maryland, and I raised them from a bottle. He has been there with me through a lot over the years.
This past week, Sam has not been eating or drinking, and he has been getting sicker by the day. Lately, we've been struggling, and we don't have the funds to take him to the animal hospital to get him properly checked out.
We are asking for assistance to take him so that they can figure out what is going on with him. He has a previous history of blockages, and from our past experience, this has cost us over $1,000 each time.
I would love to give Sammy another chance, and I appreciate anyone's help in doing this. I am very humbled to make this, and it is not something I would normally do, but I truly need the assistance, and so does Sam.
So far we're looking at $140 for the initial exam, the additional costs will be catheterization, pain meds, IV, and overnight/stay cost.

it is with a sad heart that I write that Sammy didn’t make it through. He had a severe blockage and they did everything they could, but he was not able to recover. We’re still working on paying the vet bills and getting him cremated. It’s been a very somber couple days thank you all for your donations and your help. It will help pay for the vet bills and take care of his cremation.
He was a good boy who was there with me for many years I’m so very happy to have had the time I did to spend with him. Thank you all again... From The Russo's
