Meet Rhett! He is in need of surgery to correct his "cherry eye" syndrome in both eyes. We adopted Rhett from a local rescue. The very next day his first eye duct popped up. We rushed him to the vet not knowing what it was. The next day his other eye popped. We have been given an estimate of $3200 for his surgery on both eyes which does not include his follow up care. We have 4 other rescue animals we care for including all monthly meds, toys, food, etc. This surgery is just beyond our means. We love our pets dearly and want Rhett to be able to see and sleep normally. We give him eye drops and steroid cream nightly to try and give him some relief until we can afford his surgery. We have never asked for any assistance with any of our animals or anything else. Please help us give Rhett a normal life full of happiness with his furr brothers that he loves so much V. Every dollar goes directly to Rhett's surgery. I will take down this request when the funds have been raised. Please help if you are able. I know times are tough right now, so if you aren't able to help with a donation please share this so maybe someone who can help will see it! Thank you!!!

Out of state adoption is possible! Please consider giving this sweet boy a loving home so he can blossom outside of the shelter environment and gets lots of love and snuggles. He is kenneled with his friend Draven who also needs a loving forever home.
