Update 8/16: Scooter is almost completely healed! His bandages came off a week ago, and the site of amputation is almost completely healed. Between online and in-person donations, we are a little over 50% of our $800 goal! Thank you so much to everyone who has donated so far – please continue to spread the word anyway you can. Thank you!
My name is Scooter and I need your help. I thought it would be fun to play with some fishing line, but ended up getting hurt really bad. A good Samaritan brought me to an animal hospital who has been taking great care of me. I had to have one of my legs amputated and still have some nasty wounds, but the doctors think I’m going to be fine with the right care.
The doctors have donated a lot of their time, but I still have a big bill – around $800 dollars!
I know everyone’s budget is tight right now – and I greatly appreciate you donating any amount using the button below (you don’t even need a Paypal account – just a credit card).
Thank you for listening to my story!

I'm learning to get around pretty well!

Thank you for contacting ACR! I posted Scooter’s story on our blog to help generate more resources for his care and to help find him a forever home (if he is still looking). This is the least we can do. Feel free to update us on his speedy recovery and thank you for your compassion!

Hi,
Have posted a link about Scooter’s plea.
He is absolutely adorable and I wish him a speedy recovery and a safe and loving home forever.
So sorry he got entangled in the ignorance of humans.

Thanks, Marg! Every little bit helps – and if everyone keeps spreading the word – it will all start to add up. Thank you so much!
