  • If anyone has visited the page, they will have seen that the situation here is that we’re raising funds for a procedure that will give Bernie an additional opening to urinate from. It’s a straightforward procedure, and it’s not a question about spending money for him to potentially suffer more. The money spent is to prevent him experiencing further blockages, which is what cause the pain and potential kidney failure, which can result in death. That’s why this is a life-saving surgery.





  • Our usual vet of 15 years is really good, and they would work with us.

    This is an emergency practice he’s in right now, and if we can get the ball rolling, he’ll be transferred to a specialist in Bristol on Monday.

    To be clear, we have insurance, the same as we do for all our animals. This is just a shit situation where we’ve had to go to an emergency vet, out of hours, and the level of care required has blown through the insurance cover like it was nothing.

    For what it’s worth, I appreciate you replying. It feels like a living nightmare and it’s just nice to have people engaged. So thank you.
