BLUCF Application #2

As you know we've been nursing one of our tribe -our dwarf hotot Gigi - back to health. Normally we have a few hundred dollars in our emergency savings account set aside just for the pets but we recently found ourselves homeless for about a month this fall due to having to flee an unsafe roommate situation without finding a new home in time. This of course ate up the last of our resources and we've been struggling ever since. The very same day that Gigi first became snuffly, my husband was partially laid off at work, effective immediatly, and now has had his hours cut to less than 20 a week. I am a self-employed jewelry artist and even with the holiday shopping season, the economy in general has killed my income as well.

Our bills so far: (copied from statement - I can send you a scan of the bill if you'd prefer)
Office examination and consultation: 42.50
Bacteriology - Routine culture and sensitivity: 72.00
12 Baytril Liquid per cc 20 mg/ml: 28.44

We also had to buy syringes and simethicone, petromalt, and critical care to have on hand but since these things are more of a general care kind of expense, I am not asking for any help with these.

The vet bill came to 145.36 with tax and I would like to ask for assistance towards 123.26 of this. A very kind BLU'er visited my etsy shop to support Gigi during her illness and made a purchase of $22 that I am counting towards this already.

I never forget a debt, charitable or not, so I assure you I will contribute back to this fund whenever I can to at least the amount of anything I might receive.

Regardless of whether I am approved or not I want to thank you sincerely for all of the help I and others get on BLU, advice and everything.


Yours,
M Nicole Smith
