2 lb Penny needs your help!

UPDATE: Penny saw the vet near the shelter. They do indeed think she is suffering from Megaesophagus but were too concerned with doing a barium study for aspiration purposes. She will need to see a specialist as soon as she gets here so we know how to give her the best life possible. 

******************

World, meet Ms. Penny. Penny is a special girl for a lot of reasons, one of which is just how stinkin' cute she is! But sadly, On September 27, her owners decided they no longer felt like putting up with her and dropped her off at a large, scary and noisy shelter. 

The shelter noticed she was extremely thin and would throw up after every time she ate. Because of this, we believe she has a disorder called Megaesophagus, which means she'll need a special chair to eat in or for someone to hold her upright for about 30-45 minutes after she eats so gravity can help her digest. Otherwise, she'll just regurgitate the food...and if not treated, starve to death. This is why Ms. Penny is so tiny. It's time we get her to Homeward Trails. But first she needs tests and a diagnostic report before we can take her and then she will need follow up care once here. A donation will allow us to say YES to her and immediately put her into a caring foster home where she can continue to thrive. 

Ms. Penny Pirate is excited for Halloween! :)
