๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’™ Help Give Pets Like Teddy More Time ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿถ

When Teddyโ€™s family were told he needed urgent surgery for a painful and life-threatening bladder condition, they were devastated. The only options they faced were costly surgery they couldnโ€™t afford โ€” or to have him put to sleep.

But thanks to supporters like you, The Irish Blue Cross was there to help. Our vets operated and saved Teddyโ€™s life. ๐Ÿฉบโค๏ธ

Teddy is only four years old โ€” and with your help, we hope to give him at least eight more happy years with his loving family. Years filled with tail wags, walks, and cuddles he would otherwise never have had. ๐Ÿพ

Sadly, there are over 1,400 pets currently waiting for the same chance โ€” pets who need urgent treatment but whose families simply canโ€™t afford private vet care.

Your donation today can:
โœจ Save a life like Teddyโ€™s
โœจ Ensure a pet's life doesn't end prematurely
โœจ Give families hope when they have nowhere else to turn

๐Ÿ’™ Every euro counts. Please, if you can, donate now to give pets more timem and help us reach those 1,400 pets on our waiting list faster: ๐Ÿ‘‰ www.bluecross.ie/donate

This is Sally who is so terrified of fireworks, she jumped over a 2m wall and injured her paw. If you are thinking of using fireworks this Halloween, please think of Sally's poor, worried face.

Our survey found that 91 per cent of pet owners noticed signs of stress in their pets during firework season. Over half stated their pets were โ€˜severely affectedโ€™, with many describing signs such as shaking, hiding, excessive barking, destructive behaviour, and escape attempts.
Some owners stated their pets were injured by their desperate attempts to flee fireworks. One dog suffered a fractured hip after she opened a window, jumped several walls and ran into oncoming traffic. Others reported cut paws and shoulder injuries from jumping walls, and bleeding mouths from running into glass doors, such was the extent of their petsโ€™ panic.
If your cat or dog is worried by fireworks, please see: www.BlueCross.ie/Halloween for our top tips ๐Ÿพ

โ€œI was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis shortly before COVID hit, and was in self-isolation for three years. Without Kismet, I would not be here โ€“ heโ€™s my family. Heโ€™s so loving and affectionate and I adore him.

Kismet has kidney disease and a heart murmur and as I canโ€™t work due to MS, I couldnโ€™t afford to get the care that he needs without The Irish Blue Cross. The charity is a lifeline for so many people. By donating to The Irish Blue Cross, youโ€™re saving lives โ€“ not just the animalsโ€™, itโ€™s peopleโ€™s lives as well.โ€ Mim

Please donate to give more pets like Kismet more time with their families: https://www.bluecross.ie/ways-to-help/donate/
