Emergency vet bill for Biscuit in Buffalo
A tabby kitten named Biscuit needs orthopedic surgery - a $2,000 bill the family can't cover.
🇺🇸 Buffalo, New York, United States1,083 views
Biscuit is my tabby kitten of three years. On 16 March we rushed to Buffalo Veterinary Centre with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $2,000.
They have stabilized Biscuit, but the treatment can't wait beyond May.
Biscuit is more than a pet - Biscuit walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $230 toward the bills and asked for a payment plan.
Whatever I can't raise, I'll repay to anyone who needs it back.
If more is raised than needed, the surplus goes to Buffalo Veterinary Centre's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $2,000 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $940
• Hospitalization (2 nights): $620
• Medication and follow-up visits: $310
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $130
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out
wishing you peace. Hope the recovery goes smoothly. Put this on a community board in Entebbe this morning.
How is Allison doing now?
Praying for you. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Allison?
Thank you. If you're in Buffalo I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Let me know if you want more detail.
Sending strength, Allison. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Gazipur but we're thinking of you. All the best.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Allison.
It's all in the list in the story. emergency surgery is the big one at $940, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Happy to explain more.

Give Biscuit a hug from me. After 20 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings
Good luck, Allison. Give Biscuit a hug from me. My neighbor in Mendoza donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.
Thinking of you and your family. We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean. I hope May is when things finally get easier.
