UPDATE (1/12/18): Arthur has gone downhill this week & has lost a lot of weight s he is finding it hard to chew & therefore eat enough calories. I can feel all his spine, hip bones & ribs. It is getting crucial he has his op soon before he is too weak.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE (NOV 2018): For the last 2 months he has been doing well, but I think has lost a bit more weight. Arthurs teeth really do need to come out even though this operation is very risky for him, so I am still raising money for this. Please consider donating if you haven't done so already, the existing funds raised have been spent on his blood & urine tests & vet appointments.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Blood results (14/9): The bloods didn’t really clarify things much. His blood count is ok as well as general liver & kidney results. His thyroid is very low & we need to need to find the underlying issue. Ideally they would like his few remaining teeth to come out, but as he is an anaesthetic risk, the best option would be to do an Ultrasound of his abdomen to see if anything shows up that is more major than his teeth. There’s still time to donate & we would really appreciate it. Huge thanks to those who already donated & paid for his bloods.

(Sept 2018) Sadly my boy Arthur is not very well, the vet said his symptoms could be signs of kidney disease or diabetes. His thyroid glands are also up. They did a urine test but he needs to have full blood tests as well some kind of mediation.

Due to the fact he was a stray he already has FIV (an autoimmune condition which has already effected his sight). He’s lost a lot of weight recently & has been throwing up this week.

On my current income I can't afford to have these tests done as it only just covers my bills/food. I would be so grateful if you could donate how ever much you can afford to help me & Arthur out.

I’ve had Arthur for 5 years this month after rescuing him & feeding him for 2 years as a stray. It has taken a long time for him to sit happily on my lap, but he especially likes a nice chin & chest rub. Please help me to look after him in the best way possible & make him more comfortable again.
