Emergency vet bill for Simba in Hamilton

Please help Deborah pay for Simba's emergency treatment at Hamilton Animal Hospital.

Simba is my tabby kitten of thirteen years. On 5 October we rushed to Hamilton Animal Hospital with a broken leg after a road accident. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $1,300. They have stabilized Simba, but the treatment can't wait beyond December. Simba is more than a pet - Simba got me through my hardest year. I have already put $240 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 Hamilton Animal Hospital's charity fund for other animals. Where the $1,300 goes: • Medication and follow-up visits: $180 • Emergency surgery: $670 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $450 Thank you so much.
