Tripawds Foundation Gives Hope to Tripawd Nugget Living with Severe Congential Limb Difference

Nugget was born with a partial hind leg. As he’s gotten older it has grown through his skin. I’ve only been able to raise/save $800.

I’m worried he will get septic and pass away soon if I cannot find help paying for this much needed surgery. I’m in dire straights. I have a gofundme page and its not done so well.

It’s just me trying to do what I can and go without, trying to reach the goal of around $2400.

When my son brought Nugget to me as a very small kitten about to be tossed in the trash, I never knew how severe this was about to become. He’s never gone outside. He must stay indoors.

I live far out in the country in orange groves and there’s just too many wild animals. He is really my only friend since my husband is gone most of the month. Its just him and I.

This is no quality of life for him! Or for me. Nobody cares about him but me and its sad. So please, I beg you to consider my Nugget.
