Emergency vet bill for Buddy in Chattanooga
Buddy, Patrick's senior cat, needs urgent treatment for a ruptured cruciate ligament costing $2,250.

Buddy is my senior cat of six years. On 13 March we rushed to Chattanooga Animal Hospital with a ruptured cruciate ligament. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $2,250.
They have stabilized Buddy, but the treatment can't wait beyond June.
Buddy is more than a pet - Buddy walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $200 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 Chattanooga Animal Hospital's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $2,250 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $1,400
• Hospitalization (2 nights): $370
• Medication and follow-up visits: $330
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $150
Thanks for reading all this.

You're not alone, Patrick. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Bloemfontein but we're thinking of you
shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Belo Horizonte donated after I showed her your page
Wishing you peace. We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean. Greetings from Soweto
