my rescue opossums surgery

hi, i'm payton. i rescued an opossum from euthanasia due to a birth defect april 26th 2020. she will be 3 this week. she needs her tail amputated from a birth defect, her meds are not managing it anymore, and she is showing signs of pyometria which is another expensive scan and very risky procedure. for almost 3 years shelby has been my life. financial hardship and chronic illness recently lead to trouble getting her proper help

update: her pyometria was negative. her arthritis is worse. she needs another appointment desperately to determine whether she needs tail amputation or euthanasia.
