This is Maurice — my best friend and the sweetest boy in the world.

He follows me around like a shadow, sleeps curled up on my pillow every night, and gives me so much love. But now he’s in pain, and I’m scared I might lose him.

Maurice has serious dental disease. He has stopped eating and this is very urgent. He needs multiple teeth removed before the infection spreads to his heart or other organs. I’ve been quoted over $3,500, and I simply can’t afford that on my own.

I want to get him the care he needs without waiting and suffering longer than he already has.

I feel completely helpless. Some recommendation I consider giving him up — but I just can’t. He’s my baby. I’ll do anything to save him.

If you’ve ever loved a pet like family, you know how heartbreaking this is.

Any help at all — even kind words or sharing this around — means the world to us. Thank you so much ❤️

– Maurice’s mommy.
