🐾 A HUGE thank you to the $KIMCHI community! We are incredibly grateful to Kimchi CTO and the amazing Kimchi community for their generous donation of 0.23 ETH (around $475) to clear the surgery costs of little Nelson. Nelson is a tiny 7kg dog who was found wandering alone in an open field, more than 12 kilometres from the nearest house. When our volunteer saw him, it was immediately clear something was terribly wrong. His eye had been catastrophically injured. There was a huge hematoma and severe neglect - by the time he was rescued, the injury was already about a week old. Nelson was dehydrated, starving, and in terrible condition. X-rays revealed old rib fractures, suggesting Nelson had been badly beaten in the past. He also had a bone fragment in his eye socket, most likely from blunt force trauma. Sadly, his eye could not be saved and had to be removed, and he is still receiving treatment as vets try to protect his remaining eye which is also inflamed and without sight, though thankfully not as severely damaged. Despite everything he has endured, there is also wonderful news. A kind family in Germany, experienced in caring for blind dogs, has already come forward to adopt him. Once his stitches are removed and he has recovered from surgery, Nelson will travel to his new home in April 💛 The kindness of the @kimchi_cto community means we are able to provide Nelson with the care he urgently needs 🙏 We are truly honoured that the community behind $KIMCHI chose to support our work and help one of our most vulnerable rescues. Thank you so much for giving Nelson a second chance! 💛🐾
