It turns out that Baron did not need surgery - which we only found out after he had been at the animal hospital all weekend. The money raised went to pay for his hospital stay,
The fundraiser and Baron’s mom asked the donors what we wanted to do with the left over money. We were unanimous in saying “hold on to, just in case; after that, give it to the vet’s homeless animals fund”.
Baron was feeling well enough this morning that he was chewing on the doctor’s plants. He is now on prescription cat food - it looks like for life - so I can’t buy a five pound bag of kitty chow as part of my challenge to my followers to help raise funds.
