Emergency vet bill for Nala in Louisville
Nala, Ezra's tabby kitten, needs urgent treatment for kidney failure costing $2,250.
🇺🇸 Kentucky, United States3,426 views
Nala is my tabby kitten of nine years. On 20 August we rushed to Louisville Veterinary Centre with kidney failure. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $2,250.
They have stabilized Nala, but the treatment can't wait beyond October.
Nala is more than a pet - Nala walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $320 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 Louisville Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Nala's recovery.
Where the $2,250 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $1,250
• Medication and follow-up visits: $160
• Hospitalization (2 nights): $840
Thanks for reading all this.

What exactly is the $2,250 for?
Emergency surgery is $1,250 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Happy to explain more.
Hope things get better soon. Hope you get there. God bless
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Louisville.
Thank you. If you're in Louisville I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Let me know if you want more detail.
thanks for sharing this, Ezra. Shared it with a few friends. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.
Poor Nala, hope they feel better soon. My neighbor in Kozhikode donated after I showed her your page. Love from Kozhikode.
looking forward to the next update. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care
Give Nala a hug from me.
Wishing you the best, Ezra. Give Nala a hug from me. Sent it to 16 people at work. Blessings
