Wings for Will

Hiya! My name is Will! My foster mom Ellie calls me Prince William, and she’s sure treating me like royalty! I was brought into Yolo County Animal Shelter on Wednesday, May 2nd and my mom immediately brought me to the UC Davis emergency room because I was having some trouble breathing. I was covered in fleas, I had tapeworms and am still very underweight! I got a bath and my mom flea combed for hours, and I’ve been warm and fed ever since. Apparently I have something silly called a ventricular septal defect, which means that my heart doesn’t pump blood correctly. I’m on some medications for that. I also have an esophageal defect that makes it hard for me to get food down into my tummy. My doctors believe that a CT angiogram and a surgical procedure could correct my esophageal issues so that I can eat and grow to be a big boy! Although I have a serious heart condition, I could live a happy life for quite some time! My mom is dedicated to making sure that all options are pursued in order for me to survive. Please consider helping me grow the wings I need to fly!
