Medical And Dental Fundraiser

About The Fundraiser

We are continuing our fundraising efforts to ensure that we can provide ongoing medical care to over 70 rescue animals here at Gunyah.  Your support is crucial in helping us meet the needs of these beloved residents, many of whom require regular medical and dental care.

Our dear Ruby underwent a major dental procedure that had been carefully planned for months. With a heart murmur and poor dental health, Ruby was placed on heart medication for two months before the surgery to ensure she could handle the anesthesia. On the day, we didn’t know how she would cope, but Ruby showed incredible strength. The surgery was a success, though she did lose many teeth. She’s now on the mend, surrounded by her loving kitty companions, and will have regular dental checks to keep her healthy.

Sadly, we also had to say goodbye to two cherished members of our sanctuary family, Wally and Ernie. Ernie, who came to us as a newborn orphan 10 years ago, suffered seizures and collapsed early Tuesday morning. Despite our best efforts and the care of our vet, it was clear that the kindest option was to end his suffering. On the same day, we noticed that Wally’s cancer had worsened. Wally, who joined us 13 years ago from the pound, had been fighting a losing battle with the disease. With heavy hearts, we let him go to rest peacefully.

These losses have left a significant void in our hearts and the sanctuary. Wally and Ernie were deeply loved, and they will never be forgotten.

At Gunyah, we are reminded of the cycle of life and the importance of cherishing every moment with our animal family. Your support is what allows us to continue this vital work, caring for and loving these beautiful souls.
