Esme

Esme

We have some really sad news to report - Esme passed away in the early morning of Friday 29 July 2022.  She had one chemo session and seemed ok for a few days after that but then she went downhill rapidly. Her red blood cell count dropped rapidly and we suspected leptospirosis as she started to turn yellow.
We booked her into Animal Wellness for further tests but she passed away surrounded by the night staff who stay with critical cases all night monitoring their vital signs.

She stopped breathing and despite oxygen administration and resuscitation attempts, she passed away.  Thank you to everyone who donated for her care, sent her well-wishes and prayed for her.
You can check out her full story on her profile page 
here.
