MEDI-BAT GIVING CAMPAIGN

Facebook Banner Template medibat nonGTue

This holiday season we are launching our MEDI-BAT GIVING CAMPAIGN with the goal of raising $45,000 to cover ever-rising medical costs. You can have a direct impact on the lives of our bats!

 

A significant portion of Lubee’s animals are becoming geriatric (including some original bats from 1990) and medical costs are becoming increasingly high. In 2016 our vet bills were $29,000; last year was $44,000. By the end of December our costs will be over $50,000!

​

This year, we are asking our loyal supporters to help cover our medical costs for 2019. Your generous contribution will help pay for medication, bimonthly vet visits, radiographs, emergency surgeries, ECGs, and many other procedures.

Kuri’s story

In June, our beloved Kuri was diagnosed with advanced liver cancer. She was rushed into emergency surgery the next day and had half of her liver removed. Cost was never a factor but the bill of $3500 was a lot for us. We posted about this on social media and within two days DONORS LIKE YOU covered all expenses.  We are so grateful for your generosity and are happy to report Kuri has made a full recovery! This campaign will help future emergency procedures like Kuri’s and ensure our bats live full and enriching lives.
