Sweet young Copper is full of life and loves to climb everything he can find. Sadly, his curiosity landed him in a difficult situation recently when his guardian, Janine, came home one day to find that he was limping on his back leg. After a trip to the vet for some X-rays, it was determined that Copper’s femur is badly broken. Janine believes he likely fell from a high surface while climbing. Copper currently has very limited mobility and is experiencing a great deal of pain.
Due to the severity of the break, the vet has recommended a full amputation to mitigate the risk of a potentially life-threatening infection occurring. As a senior on pension, Janine is unable to afford this costly procedure. She knows it is the safest route of treatment to ensure that Copper lives a happy and full life. With help from the Vancouver Humane Society’s McVitie program, Copper will get the care he needs as soon as possible.
