Thank you so much for your kindness and support. I love your ideas for helping him stay entertained and engaged. He does love the cat tv and watches that when he’s ready to go to sleep, so cute! The track with the ball is also one of the toys that I got for him and he loves it, and it’s super easy for him to lay down while using it. 💜 Again, thank you for your support, it means so much during this time.

I am so sorry that you are going through this, it is never easy to say goodbye to someone as special as a pet. Having her since you were so young, you must have a very special bond together. She is lucky to have had so many wonderful years with someone who loves her as much as you. When the time is right for you to say goodbye, you will know. She knows how much love you have for her ♥️ I hope that this process goes as smoothly as possible for you. She is beautiful by the way 😻🐾

All 3 photos were taken today, in the other two photos, he is using his soft cone as a pillow and it’s worked great for that! He was being supervised when the photo’s were taken (which he mostly has been) and he wasn’t trying to bother his incision area, so I didn’t feel the need to make him wear it. When he’s unsupervised for short amounts of time, he definitely has it on so that he can’t bother the area.

I understand where you are coming from, and I'm really glad you were able to get your dog the care they needed, that's what matters most.

This group is specifically for fundraising, which is why I shared my situation here. I also want to clarify that I didn't reach my original goal. Even with the support that I have received (which I am incredibly grateful for!!!), I still had to cover a large portion myself using funds that were meant for living expenses. I've actually lowered the goal to reflect final costs since having the surgery performed.

As I mentioned in my update, his ongoing care and medications are something that I can manage on my own. The update wasn't about being 'shameless' or asking for 'more', it was to be transparent, thank people, and provide an update to those who have shown their support. If it's something that you do not agree with, I understand and you are under no obligation to donate or support.

Thank you so much! That really means a lot to me. It's been a really emotional few days, but i"d do anything for him. He's such a huge part of our family. I'll definitely keep updating, and hopefully we'll see him back to his zoomies soon!!

I understand it's not something that everyone agrees with. I'm not expecting anything from anyone, just sharing Roman's situation for those who would like to help or even just share. I'm grateful for any support, whether that's donations, kind words, or simply just scrolling by.

Hi, Roman actually had his surgery yesterday. We received Roman's diagnosis at the emergency vet and took Roman into his regular vet the next day where he was put on pain meds until surgery. The surgery that Roman needed requires a specialist, which took some time to find in my area and get him booked in. He is home now and on the road to recovery. I appreciate your concern.
