Emergency vet bill for Rosie in Jimma
A cat named Rosie needs an operation to remove the blockage - a $300 bill the family can't cover.

Rosie is my cat of nine years. On 30 July we rushed to the Jimma Emergency Vet Clinic with pyometra. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $300.
They have stabilized Rosie, but the treatment can't wait beyond October.
Rosie is more than a pet - Rosie walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $20 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 the Jimma Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Rosie's recovery.
Where the $300 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $250
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $30
• Medication and follow-up visits: $20
Thanks for being kind about this.

Updates from Biniam
Quick update: $35 raised so far (12%). the first invoice got paid this week. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Update from Jimma: I met with the vet clinic and confirmed the amounts. We're at 8% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($20 in total) we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely. - Biniam

Hang in there. This could happen to any of us. Love from Philadelphia.
Praying for you, Biniam. Hope this works out for you. Take care.
Wishing you the best. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
sending love. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings.
Hope things get better soon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
