Help Rio the Alligator Get Life-Saving Surgery

Donation protected
Hello, I am Bob my guy is Rio, he is our alligator, he named after the movie Rio ll that is when I had got him. I have two pens for our buddie, one in basement for the winter time. The other outside for summer. A morning in July I was filling his pool up and I forgot to shut his gate because I had gotten distracted. The next morning I got up, looked out, he was not there! So I started one of many searches. Then a big rain storm came and flushed Rio out from where was hiding. A gentleman on his way to work had seen him laying on the road so he picked Rio up and put him in the back of his truck. The gentleman could not believe what he picked up; he told me where he had found Rio. Someone knew that I had an alligator, so Rio was returned back home. So after five weeks he is home although he lost some teeth, due to trying to eat rocks, yes he swallowed a rock. X-rays had show it. He has not been able to pass the rock and now he needs to get an operation. So it would be greatly appreciated if you would give us a little bit of help. Thank you so much. Rio appreciates it!
