Eeyore's Hen Harbor hasn't added a story.
Pea-Cookie is a happy-go-lucky duck rescued from a high-kill animal shelter two years ago. She has been living contentedly with her friends at Hen Harbor until recently, when she developed an infection in her abdomen.
Infected fluid, probably related to a malfunctioning reproductive tract, is filling her abdomen. This condition is mostly likely related to the fact that as a "meat" duck, Pea-cookie was bred to be extra fat, making her more prone to physical ailments. (She is a Pekin, the duck breed that is farmed en masse by the duck meat industry.)
Although she looks healthy on the surface, we know that it is only a matter of time before the infection overtakes her.
So far, Pea-Cookie's vet bills have been substantial and surgery is almost a foregone conclusion at this point. We hope to get a second opinion with another avian specialist before committing to exploratory surgery -- a path that will almost certainly run up a tab of at least $1,000.
Can you put aside a few pre-holiday dollars to help save little Pea-Cookie? Her treatment has been delayed while we scramble for funds. Her situation is quite urgent, as the longer we delay treatment, the less likely she'll make a full recovery.
All donations are tax-deductible, and you will receive a receipt upon donating!
