Buddy is my dog of thirteen years. On 10 June we rushed to Likoni Animal Hospital with a ruptured cruciate ligament. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $500. They have stabilized Buddy, but the treatment can't wait beyond August. Buddy is more than a pet - Buddy is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $35 toward the bills and asked for a payment plan. Whatever I can't raise, I'll repay to anyone who needs it back. Funds will be paid straight to Likoni Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Buddy's recovery. Where the $500 goes: • Emergency surgery: $300 • Hospitalization (4 nights): $125 • Medication and follow-up visits: $25 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $50 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
