Help Me Cremate My Max Von Schnitzel as a Final Tribute
Donation protected
My beloved dog, Max Von Schnitzel, was more than just a pet—he was my hero, protector, and loyal companion for 15 incredible years. Max wasn’t just a rescue; he rescued me from more than I can ever repay, including saving me from abuse and even a house fire. His unwavering love and bravery carried me through life’s toughest moments, and now, as I face the unbearable pain of losing him, I want to honor him in the best way possible.
Max's health declined rapidly due to kidney failure, and I had to make the heartbreaking decision to let him go. The vet has kindly agreed to hold him until the end of the week, giving me a little more time to gather the funds for cremation so I can bring him home where he belongs. The costs have quickly added up: $455 for the vet visit, and an estimated $600 for cremation, an urn, and a few memorial items like paw prints and documentation.
These past weeks have been incredibly tough, with unexpected expenses like emergency dental visits and car repairs. I’m in a difficult financial situation, and the thought of not being able to properly honor Max is devastating. I’m trying to raise $700 to cover these costs, so I can keep him with me in some way. Every little bit helps, and even if you can't donate, just sharing this means the world to me.
Max saved me in more ways than I can express. I can't stand the thought of being without him, and I want to do this last thing for him. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for any kindness and support you can offer during this heartbreaking time.
