We need help raising funds for Sylvesters leg amputation

Auckland

Sylvester has had a rough start in his short life, born on the street with a sister. He was being fed by a family that didn't realise how badly he was hurt from limping around their property.

He finally came into our care and has been diagnosed with a severely broken back leg that needs to be amputated to give him the best chance at a normal painfree life.

This is not a cheap operation and will further deplete our rescue bank account, please donate to help us, help beautiful Sylvester. He is pre booked in to have surgery 21 June as he needs surgery asap as hes been in alot of pain :(

Update  8 July 2022

UPDATE -

Sylvester went for his appointment, after getting addition xrays it was decided to not amputate his leg as he has hip injury also but to monitor how his growth plate changes while he is still growing. If anyone would like their donation refunded as we didn't end up getting what we had donations for please contact Givealittle by 5pm Wednesday 20th May at helpdesk@givealittle.co.nz and they can process this for you. Otherwise, funds will go towards helping other sick animals in our care with medication and tests expenses. Photo below is what we had done at the appointment. He is on pain meds, relaxing and hanging out with his sister Izzy
