Stratos, 2 years old recently lost a large amount of weight/muscle mass due to a bacterial infection. Has been fighting for his life over the past week and is finally making some progress. We can't give up on him as he is a member of our family. He is young and just needs to fight this virus. Stratos is going to need follow up treatment with his Vet and medications. Yesterday 11th July Stratos under went surgery to have his belly cleaned out which was full of puss and a drain has been left in to drain away any excess puss which builds up. We are trying to raise some funds to help pay for his vet bill which is currently sitting at $2,600 and follow up treatments. #GoStratos

stratos is on the mend and doing so much better. He had a another vet visit last week to get his weight and check his stitches which all looked good, we got some more medication to keep the virus at bay. Today we went back for another visit and have gained 2.3grams in weight is is fabulous. We had a injection for anti inflammatory and had our stiches removed. Stratos is eating more everyday. He will be on meds for sometime to make sure the virus is gone. We have along way to go healing wise but the worst is behind us.

On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
