MayDay MayDay for SpookyShorty!

* runs to computer and with details in paw begins to type with a trembling paws *

Guys, whatever you are doing, please may I beg a moment of your time on a matter of great urgency.

You all know @SpookyShorty and his Mom Lillian.  Spooky's Mum has moved heaven and earth to fund Spooky's medical bills, and, he is doing fine, because she is very careful with every cent she gets.  However, I had a message from Lillian today that made my blood run cold. They will lose the roof over their head if we cannot act in time, and I do not say this lightly.  

Please read Lillian's words :-

"I was served a dispossess today.

I had owed a rent increase going back to Jan I have caught up with that but since my unemployment check only stretches so far this new rent increase is more then what I get left with each month. Because my landlord does not accept partial payments I have been sending my rent in near the end of the month [after saving out of each check] he will only accept the full amount -- because he has already started the dispossess. He wants the full rent for June. I only have Spookys vet money of $375 that is for July's monthly payment and; his blood work for July. "

I am including the chip in (right) and would state that Mum and I have donated already

FUND RAISER NECKLACE :-

Mum will be selling an elegant but simple silver plated chainmaille necklace for a donation to Spooky's fund (offers of $20 or more if you want to donate more with free shipping) a picture will follow when its daylight so pals get to see what they are getting * quiet smile *.

Spooky's blog is here and I will personally vouch for Lillian and Spooky's bona fides as long term, honest and honourable friends on Twitter.  Mum and I love Lilliand and want to see her safe, please join me.

  1. Pals, please please, if you can help, please do so. I fully support Dash's comments above. I believe Lillian is being truthful about her predicament and truly needs our help. I have known her through Twitter for over 18 months and we speak regulary through emails. In that way, I have been given a window into her life and I am 100% certain of her integrity, honesty and character. Please consider helping her, if you can. Many thanks.

  2. We have nothing to chip in but Lillian and Spooky/Shorty are in our prayers. So hope the amount is raised in time!

  3. This is just so so sad. Some people just keep getting dumped on. I'm contributing what I can - wish it could be more.
