Raising funds to help cover 21 y/o Brina's medical needs and other vet costs
Christchurch, Canterbury
My beautiful Burmese little lady joined my family when she was just 8 weeks old, when I was 8 years old... We grew up together, I simply adore her and now she's 21 & a half! She's moved house 3 times and handled it like champ! Brina moved in with my partner and I 5 years ago after my family moved to Australia. It didn't seem fair to fly her over, as it would likely cause her a lot of unnecessary stress... She adjusted extremely well and is my shadow as she copes with arthritis, dementia, liver and kidney issues.
But her most recent vet appointment confirmed what I feared - I'll have to say goodbye soon. Her arthritic joints are effecting her balance and her lack of appetite was a concern in April. Her little body was starting to waste away...
However, since that appointment... 3 months later, she is showing small improvements... her balance is better, her appetite has increased and I'm sure she's gained a little weight. I realised it wasn't an appetite she was lacking, she just felt too sore to move.
She's now getting daily pain relief and salmon fillet bites for her arthritic joints, as well as continuing her daily liver supplement, kidney care food and ample water. But all I can do is keep her comfy, happy and pamper her as much as possible, there is no cure, not at her age.
It would be incredible if she made it to 22 in November, but who knows... I need to save for what comes next and those costs are high. Could you spare a few dollars to help me?
Liver supplements, kidney care food, vet care
Almost 2 months later... 3 January 2023
I've been attempting to write an update for at least 2 weeks, but I still can't find the right words.
With just 1 payment left to make on her final vet bill, I want to say another big thank you to all the support and kind words.
...I still need your help though, as I choose the purrrfect urn for her, while I'm sure she's happy with her little cardboard box, I feel like she deserves better.
I would also love to be able to donate to cat/animal charities in her honor.
Whether a big or small donation, it all adds up and helps a lot.
Thank you again :) xo
