My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


I offered to help take care of Bonzai, over 2 years ago. His owner went to school with my son. She had an aneurysm and a stroke, at 30 years old. I wasnt expecting to keep him permanently. I asked for them to find someone in her family to help, but no one wants to. I told her that I cant do it anymore and Im trying to find a home for him. I was living in the country and had a husband, that helped out. Now were separated and will be divorced next month. I live alone. I work and Im gone most of the time. I help my daughters and grandkids out, a lot. Im going on more trips also. Bonzai wants a lot of attention and I cant give it. I spent almost $400 on shots, etc last year. I spent about $500 on him a couple of weeks ago. The family doesnt help me with the cost. Hes 14 years old. His back legs shake a little bit.(age) He has fatty tissue growth on his body. About 4 of them. Two of them are larger. Had blood work done. Theyre not cancerous. He walks and runs fine. Has a skin allergy
