The Official Milky Wave Amputation Donation Page

[tripperfunster]

Wow! Thanks for all of the lovely responses and kind words!

For those of you who are new, Milky's story can be found here

tl;dr I found him on the side of the highway, suffering from severe frostbite. So severe, in fact that it was right to the bone on one leg, and the resulting wound just will not heal. We've tried every alternative we can think of, but nothing has worked, so on Monday he is slated to have that leg amputated.

To help deal with his mounting vet bills I have decided to sell all of my art. I will put prices beside the pictures, and the first person to comment with both the TITLE and selling price wins. In the case of non priced items (not many, don't worry) highest bid (ending Monday evening midnight CST)wins.
Please don't pay for anything until I have confirmed with you! I will cross out items as they are sold.
All items are REAL art (ie pencil on paper) and I will ship the original to the winning 'bidder'.

Thanks again to everyone's kind words. It really means a lot to me! <3

I'll put $50 on top of Accio's bid for her to get the Thong art. She needs pretty artsies right now and poor, poor kitty needs some care. I've had my share of injured adoptees (cats and dogs) and understand how the medical bills can add up.

[katiebell-0408.livejournal.com]

This was a repost, since I realized I replied to Accio, not the OP, and thought maybe you hadn't gotten it. But now I see the price has gone up on the Thong art, so I guess it went through after all. Sorry for the repetition.


PS. He's a beautiful kitty. I'm sure he'll come through great. We had to have an eye removed from one of our adoptees and it's amazing how they take it all in stride.

[brissygirl.livejournal.com]

I pinched accioslash's wording from her entry and helped spread the word to my flist.

Good luck with the auction and give Milky a snuggle from me.

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Pimpage is very helpful! <3

[destertale.livejournal.com]

Not a bid, though I love your art, just sent a donation. ((hugs))

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much!

I am seriously overwhelmed by all of the generousity and kind words.

And it's lovely and fitting that a cat who was treated so badly by one person, is getting so much love from so many.

Thank you!

[perivates.livejournal.com]

Don't have enough to make any bids, but I did send a donation! All the best to you and your kitty <3

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Aw, thank you very much! Every little bit helps, and I'm sure poor Milky appreciates it! (or not, he IS a cat, afterall!!)

[dragonaries.livejournal.com]

Snape-a-thon $200

And I'll take: Nuther Snarry $30 ink and Snarry Inked $30 ink.

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Done, done and done! ;)

[bendtothesun.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid I can only donate a little at this time but I just wanted to say I love your kids artwork. You can tell them I'm a big fan but they're already out of my price range. XD

Good luck to you all and precious Milky!

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Every little bit helps, and my kids were thrilled to hear you liked their stuff!

And yes, fingers crossed! Tomorrow is the big day!

[veronica-rich.livejournal.com]

I read about this on xenafox's LJ. You have $5 from this cat owner; good luck!

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! (Xena's such a sweetie to pimp!)

Milky thanks you too! <3

[robriki.livejournal.com]

I'll take both kids' artses. Give them a hug, too.

Crying now.

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

OH yay! They will be so thrilled! Thank you very much.

I've done a bit of crying myself lately. First, that poor Milky had to suffer so much at the hands of stoopid people, and then again, at the generousity and kindness of people who have never met him.

Do you have a fandom that you swim in? I will happily throw in some HP or Trek sketches for you. I have tons!

[perverse-idyll.livejournal.com]

Eeee, I love that your kids contributed their drawings to the auction! Please tell them they are fangirled!

And I can't outbid dragonaries but I will say the Snarry-a-thon drawing is worth every penny she offers for it.

Here's my $65. I'll be praying (in my own atheist way) that Milky Wave comes through surgery and proceeds to live a long and happy life.

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Aw, thank you very much! <3
Are you sure I can't send you some art? I have SCADS of it lying around. (granted, some of it is ... hagrd/squid ..)

And yes, I will tell my boys you liked their art. :D

[warped-factor.livejournal.com]

OMG, that poor, poor kitty! :( You are so awesome for saving him! *hugs* Your kids are awesome, too, and their art is adorable! I hope everything goes well and Milky will be okay - I'm sending lots of good thoughts your and his way!

Man, I ♥ all your art (goodness, your Snarry A Thon entry is GORGEOUS). I'd love to buy "Advent" for $25 if it's still available, and I'd also love "First Kiss" (K/S piece from your DA gallery) if that's still available, for however much you'd like for it!

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Advent and First Kiss are yours! (how does $25 each sound?)

Be sure to note me on paypal with your lj name!

Thank you very much! And I'll tell my boys that you like their art. :D

[sra-danvers.livejournal.com]

Pointillation Snarry is still available?

[torino10154]

Butting in here, but I bid $50 on it but you can certainly go higher. Tripperfunster said the bidding closes Monday at 12 Midnight Central time (1am Eastern, 7am Europe).

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

Have pimped and donated some money, Tripp. You are such a saint, dear.

And your kids drew something! That's so adorable.

Love you all ♥ ♥ ♥

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much hon!

Yeah, my kids were pretty pumped to help out. :D SO CUTE!

[alysbowie.livejournal.com]

Came here via themostepotente's journal. I don't have enough for artwork, but am going to make a donation to help out instead. :)

The poor wee dear. It breaks my heart that someone could so cruelly abandon him.

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! Every little bit helps.

and yeah, some people need a roundhouse kick to the face! It boggles the mind that people can be so cruel.

And yet, it boggles the mind that so many people here on livejournal can be so generous and amazing! <3

[galad222000.livejournal.com]

I would like to purchase Crayon Snape and I am willing to pay $100 for it help with costs for your kitty. I am a cat lover from way back and cannot express how fabulous you are for caring for this little Milky Way. I bow down to you. Hugs, CB

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! <3

Make sure to note me on paypal so I know your livejournal name!

<3 <3 <3

[mr-marvelous67.livejournal.com]

I am in awe of your efforts for this kitty! <3
And I've always just loved your work, so I'm especially glad to help out. I've just scoured your DA (quite happily, I must admit) to see what sorts of Trek art you had. If it's available, I'd love "In My Warm Embrace" for however much you want for it. Lemme know if it's not so I can figure out where else to put my money. :)

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Aw, In My Warm Embrace is gone. :(

I still have: Proton Stream, Galaxy of Luuurve, Blue and Gold.

Ya know ... I have a REALLY NICE watercolour pic for the Trek Big Bang that I can't post yet, but I CAN show you a preview!

[emmessann.livejournal.com]

You have a picture, from forever ago and which I don't see on your DeviantArt page (so I feel cheeky even asking) which is basically Dumbledore peeking out from a pool with the most incredibly coy expression. By any chance is that available, and if so what would you ask for it?

If it's not available, I would definitely like Dumbles Mit Phoenix for $30. (If it is available, and there's time before someone else claims it, I'd like to choose between the two.)

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Ahahha! I"ll have to check if I still have it.


I have a couple of Fumbledores, if you're interested.
Dumbles toe sucking: http://pics.livejournal.com/tripperfunster/pic/0001bw9e/

And this one: http://pics.livejournal.com/tripperfunster/pic/000w70sf/

And know I'll go dig around for ... I forget what I called it, but yeah, dumbles in the water looking coy. :D

Good luck to Milky Wave

[(Anonymous)]

He is a beautiful baby; I'm so sorry for his pain...I sent a small donation and will keep track of his progress; he's in my prayers...You are a great artist and kind person to save this sweet baby.

Re: Good luck to Milky Wave

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

OMG, I missed this message somehow! grrr

Thank you so much. I very much appreciate your kind words and generousity. He is doing VERY well now, and just about doubled in size! he's going to be quite the beefy boy!

[wildcatwoodscats.blogspot.com (from livejournal.com)]

Thanks for taking in this poor cat - I too found a deaf white kitten by the side of a highway - would have been killed if I had not stopped. Will see what funds I can come up with to help! I run a small private shelter for feral cats!

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

I am so sorry for missing this comment! *heddesk*

What is it about white cats and highways??

Thank you so much. There aren't a lot of wild cats where I am, but there are a lot of people who dump them off around here. We are in the country, but only minutes from the city.

Good luck with your rescue. I bow down to your comittment!

[kath-ballantyne.livejournal.com]

Looks like you're getting an awesome response.
I finally got my act together and put up a post about auctioning a commission off for Milky here (http://kath-ballantyne.dreamwidth.org/586993.html)
Not sure there'll be much interest but every bit helps.

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure what happened, but I missed the last four comments in this post, and yours is one of them. I am so sorry! grrr

thank you so much for your generousity! Milky is doing really well now. He has just about doubled in weight, and only had one seizure in three weeks. (or even more time, I suck at writing things down.)

Sorry it took me so long to reply. :(

[debitha.livejournal.com]

Oh, the poor love. Well done you for looking after the poor soul. I'm here via kath_ballantyne. I've hit the donate button for him.

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Oh man! I somehow missed this comment. I am so sorry! How rude!!

Thank you so much! Kath is such a sweetie for pimping this.

Milky is doing very well! His leg is looking really good, and fingers crossed, he'll be able to keep it. He certainly LOOKS better than he did before, and he's turning into quite to goof.

Thanks again, and I'm so sorry that it took me so long to reply.
