Emergency vet bill for Ginger in Bahir Dar
Please help Selamawit pay for Ginger's emergency treatment at Bahir Dar Animal Hospital.
🇪🇹 Bahir Dar, Amhara, Ethiopia905 views
Ginger is my cat of thirteen years. On 10 August we rushed to Bahir Dar Animal Hospital with a ruptured cruciate ligament. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $300.
They have stabilized Ginger, but the treatment can't wait beyond October.
Ginger is more than a pet - Ginger is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $45 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 Bahir Dar Animal Hospital's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $300 goes:
• Medication and follow-up visits: $25
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $20
• Emergency surgery: $255
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Selamawit.
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. medication and follow-up visits is the biggest at $25. Let me know if you want more detail.
Thinking of you. Give Ginger a hug from me. We're a small family in Addis Ababa but we're thinking of you. All the best.
so sorry you're going through this, Selamawit. This could happen to any of us. God bless.
Stay strong, Selamawit. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did
