Hi, my name is Amanda and I am fundraising to help my sick bearded dragon. I took on care of Cheeto a little over a year ago. Her enclosure and diet were not ideal for good quality of life and she was majorly overweight.
Cheeto is a 4 year old bearded dragon but has lived a lifetime. She started her life substantiating a break in her tail while in transport to her home. Cheeto was not properly fed and she become obese. Shorty after taking in this sweet girl she started showing signs of health problems. I got her a specialist to give her the best care and shorty after she was diagnosed with heart disease. Cheeto now has to get daily heart medications that she will be on for life. Once that issue was getting managed she started having skin issues. After many tries to clear and tests later, we found out Cheeto had a major skin infection. This issue took a long time to get under control and resolve. After navigating these ailments I finally thought we got through everything. That was not the case, and another problem arised. Cheeto now has a fast growing growth on her eyelid. Her specialist does not know what it is and she needs surgery to remove and biopsy. This is a very risky procedure with her heart issue but leaving it alone could cause issues with the eye.
I am asking for any donations that would help Cheeto get the procedure and any care she would need if something went wrong.
Whether it’s $1, $5 or $20 every little bit counts.
If you are not able to donate I just ask you to share this post.
Cheeto is the sweetest girl and deserves a chance to continue to live and thrive. Thank you so much for reading Cheeto’s journey and any help you can give.
