Save my home

The picture you see is my dog Pistol and me who I loved with all my heart. For over 4 years she received therapies for elbow dysplasia with costs topping 11,000 dollars .

One week before I left for the music tour I am on right now with jazz legend Jean Luc Ponty she stopped walking and though another 2000 was spent , we could not save her, and I had to put her down.

ONE  day before I left for the tour the property manager of my home which I , Pistol and my other 15 pets have lived in, called me. Jared at Home Basics Realty in Orem Utah said"Jamie , the property owners want to retire and though you are a great tenant and have been here for 11 years, I need you to vacate at the end of the month.

I was dumfounded , what was I going to do?

I have a production studio where the music for superbowl, masters, animal planet, my albums, Anderson Ponty band album and more were all done for my guitar parts and compositions and I have 15 pets

who was going to rent to me long term?

how was I going to vacate when I was in a bus going across the country with some of the most amazing musicians on the planet?

what was I to do??

He asked ,.. why dont you BUY IT.?..he added I had hoped that you would have bought it over the years.

I surely didn't expect that I had to buy a house

but that is what I have to do now.

I have half the down payment , half the taxes I owe the IRS, half of everything...and am asking you to help me please.

Coming up with the funds and paperwork in 1 month is nearly impossible for even people who are prepared.

My chinchillas are ages 10-16 Furdie, Princess, Baby, Sage, Buttercup and Matt need to have their home saved.

My parrots , Beanie, Bosley, Piper, Peekalo, and Neena

need you to help save our home.

My guinea pigs Pablo and Frankie ... need to stay in their home

and Bullet the dog needs to stay in the only home she has ever known.

All my beautiful pets are rescues except for Pablo and Frankie the guinea pigs and the chinchillas who were rehomed. ( they were loved before)

On GO fund me unlike other crowd funding the person asking doesn't have to give perks

but I am going to give anyone who contributes 50 dollars or more a free CD when my next CD is released ( once I am settled house wise) I will also list your name on the CD as a home saver and animal lover.

Anyone  that donates "anything" will get an autographed and personalized picture of me and the animals.

While I could have written some heart wrenching plea here , I am well aware that people are in need all over the world, that animals are sufferring and folks need your help,.,...so I will keep it to the point

I need your assistance to keep my home, to get the funds needed to keep the place we love so much

thank you!

Jamie, Furdie, Princess, Sage, Buttercup, Baby, Matt, Beanie, Piper, Bosley, Peekalo, Neena, Pablo, Frankie, and Bullet
