Written by Elfin’s wonderful foster, Tania Hutchison

“Little Elfin came into our care with his Mom, Eve, and sister, Ella.

Elfin was diagnosed with a severe congenital condition called Vascular Ring Anomaly. This birth defect caused a ring of vessels to constrict his esophagus and trachea, meaning he was unable to keep any food down. Watching him struggle, ravenously hungry but unable to swallow, was heartbreaking.

Since the required expensive and invasive surgical correction was not possible due to his small size, the difficult decision was made to compassionately let him go and rest in peace. This is the sad, often unseen reality of rescue work.

He was loved deeply by everyone who knew him and will never, ever be forgotten.“
