Zippy

“Zippy is our world and will be so difficult to let him go. I know we will see him again, but Zippy doesn’t know that, hence why he is fighting to stay”.

“I rescued Zippy the year my father, who was nicknamed Zip, passed as a living memorial and a way for my young daughter to cope with the loss. Zippy has grown up with her. He has seen me through my breast cancer battle (that I won!) and been a comfort through my husband’s Parkinson’s and Dementia diagnosis. Now it’s our turn to comfort Zippy, as he is suffering strokes due to his old age and is restless. As our unforeseen health battles put us in financial distress, we are so grateful to receive financial assistance to send Zippy across the rainbow bridge with dignity, comfort, and respect".
