Jo Solomon from No Verbal Filter just set up her third Gofundme since 2019.
The first one was for her horse Jack for cancer on his eyelid, she went to her local paper saying she was just about to go on maternity and couldn't afford to pay for it. (None of her six horses or other animals are insured) Surgery was done so ok.
Second one a couple of years ago for her cat who was shot by an air rifle, there was a possibility she may need surgery but rather than wait for her to see the specialist to find out Jo yet again asked for money, the total was reached in two hours, people told her to take it down but she cited 'technical issues' and it stayed up well in to the following day. And then miraculously the cat didn't need the operation, some people were suspicious and asked for refunds but she refused and blocked them. Off the top of my head I think it was about £4000 in the end possibly more. She's always claimed she refunded everyone who asked and spent the money on the animals.
Today she has set up another fir Jack as he now has cancer on his penis, he could have laser surgery but she claims the vet has said he wants to amputate part of the penis instead.
This comes after telling us she had caught it really quickly and when she said about amputation the vet said not to be hasty, now she reckons he's said it has to be done next week as a matter of urgency.
Laser would be approx £1200 but suprise suprise he's chosen the amputation at approx £3500!
She says she's more than happy to get a loan and has done all the 'only donate if you can afford it' and 'i hate asking for help' blah blah blah but the reality is she has a new car and a lorry she bought for £14,000 on her drive that is mostly used for tip runs but she is refusing to sell it!
She begs and hints constantly for things, has an army of gullible supporters who constantly send clothes, toys, stuff for the horses etc she has a wishlist with things like washing powder etc on and the joke is she has said numerous times she earns more money doing social media as her 'job' than she ever earnt working full time. She constantly moans about having no money yet had enough for Botox and a non surgical eye lift!
I'm convinced she will get this money and then we will get the 'oh the vet decided he didn't need surgery after all' spiel. Even on her begging post just now she lied again by saying that when she did the one for the cat the surgeon only decided on the day that the cat didn't need surgery at all which wasn't how it was told to us at the time.
She is a habitual liar and she hasn't even been honest and admitted that this is her third fundraiser for her animals (plus she also got her supporters to raise money for her rapist best friend but that's another story!
)
So far she's got £305 in the first half an hour.
In a cost of living crisis where people are struggling and rescue centres overrun by animals being surrendered because people can't afford to keep them I just find it disgusting that yet again she expects others to pay for the animals she insists on having yet doesn't look after properly.
There's a list on her thread of all the animals that have suffered in her 'care' and believe me it's shocking.
