Kipper

by jenna.riedi • Posted in: Donations, Fundraising
Kipper is a survivor of the Bastrop fires and has been reunited with his family. However, Kipper was severely injured, with all four paws badly burnt as well as suffering burns to his face. “He is quite the trooper for surviving 11 days out there, waiting on our property for us” says his mom, Janet, “He was so weak, when he heard my voice all he could do was a quite, raspy meow and he couldn’t even get up.”
His family took him to the vet, who have cared for Kipper and helped him heal and while there is not a release date yet, Kipper is doing much better. Kipper’s family completely lost their house in the fires and one of their four pets as well. As you can imagine, the cost of this veterinary care for Kipper is more than the family can afford due to their terrible loss. They reached out to Austin Pets Alive for help with the vet bill and we could not say no. Will you help us pay Kipper’s bill so the family does not have to worry anymore?
Thank you!
