Gizelle's Rescue Mission

My friend Audrey in Toronto is going through a bit of a crisis. Gizelle, her 8 month old cat needs a very expensive operation to save her life and Audrey can't afford it all on her own. She's created a Facebook group to garner support and started up a donations page in the hopes that someone will help her out. I've donated a little, and now I'm posting this here in the hopes that you will too. I know I'd be a mess if my kitty needed an operation and I couldn't afford it.

Here's her letter in full:

After consultation with a few vets, it is confirmed that Gizelle has a level 5 out of 6 heart murmur. At such a young age and with such a severe condition, she will need an ultrasound and examination done to determine which drugs to use during her operation because most drugs are designed to slow the heart rate, but if the incorrect drug is used, it could stop her heart altogether and kill her. Yes, I was heart broken at the news and cried...

The 'estimate' for her ultrasound, operation, and IV is going to cost $864.15. It's the same person that does ultrasounds and examinations for many vet clinics in Toronto so it's going to cost about the same thing everywhere apparently.

In the next little while, I'm going to be selling some of my possessions, hopefully run a few bake sales if I can get permission to use an appropriate space, and pool together donations. Please feel free to contact me if you're interested in helping in any way.

Thank you very much for your support... without you guys, we wouldn't have the strength and courage to get through this.

Sincerely,
Gizelle + Audrey
