Hi, I know this might not be the place for this, but I'm really desperate!
I have a beautiful 1 year old Maine Coon girl named Bubble. She startet to get her knees dislocated last week.
A trip to the vet showed that her hips are not sitting correctly in their sockets, which puts a lot of strain on her entire body. It makes her carry most of her weight on the front legs, which will lead to more problems later in life if not corrected. The hip problems lead to weak muscles in the hindquarters and stretch the ligaments in the hind legs. Her knees get dislocated partially because of this, and partially because they don’t sit correctly either. If she keeps dislocation them, she might also tear a ligament in her knee. To correct this, she needs hip replacments and they need to stabilize her knees. It's quite complicatet to explain all about it.
Luckely she can make a full recovery with surgeries, but it's terribly expensive. Surgery will cost €1308 per knee, and € 3270 per hip. This is including overnight stays, X-rays, medicine etc.
She is going in for surgery on her right knee on monday, as this knee is painful for her right now, but we can barely afford it. We won't be able to pay for anything else right now. As we don't have a lot of money we would really appreciate if anyone could help us out just a little bit. We startet a fundraiser to get her all of the surgeries she needs, and if anyone could take the time to share this with friends, family or strangers, we would be forever greatful. She is so young and she gives us so much love and joy, and we would hate to have to end up putting her to sleep because we can't afford all her surgeries. As we are desperate, we thought we could try to raise the money we need.
Thank you so much for reading!
