Capone is a 4 to 4 1/2 year old ferret. He has the most wonderful personality and he is extremely affectionate and loving. I have watched him over the past 6 months deteriorate in health because of a horrendous tumor that is slowly extinguishing his flame. I have cared for Capone as best as I could hoping his previous owner would be able to raise the funds to get him the help he so desperately needs, but he was unable to. I can't sit by any longer and watch him suffer. You can see how bad the tumor is, and Capone rips it open several times a day, and I try to clean it as best I can. If I had the resources to take care of this problem myself, I would, but It is literally impossible. Through the help of 2 wonderful agencies who donated $100 each I was directed to a wonderful vet, Dr Ian Hardin, in Coquitlam, BC who saw Capone on Monday June, 3rd. That first vet visit alone cost $187. We have drawn a surgical treatment plan up for Capone and the estimated cost of that is between $495.58 and $578.27 after taxes. Plus, there will be a minimum of 1 aftercare visit to ensure the healing process is going right. As soon as we receive enough donations to cover the costs, surgery will be booked. Time is of the essence.



Donations can be made in 1 of 2 ways. The first is securely through this FundRazr campaign, the second way is through the vet. Eagle Ridge Animal & Bird Hospital.

If, by chance, more than enough funds are raised and there is a balance left over after Capone has fully healed, it will be donated to Eagle Ridge Animal Hospital.



Capone and I would be grateful to anyone who might see fit to share or tweet this story amongst their social networks. Thank you.
