Emergency vet bill for Simba in Nagpur
Simba, Dola's three-legged dog, needs urgent treatment for a foreign object blocking the intestines costing $500.
🇮🇳 Nagpur, Maharashtra, India1,162 views
Simba is my three-legged dog of nine years. On 24 December we rushed to Nagpur Veterinary Centre with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $500.
They have stabilized Simba, but the treatment can't wait beyond February.
Simba is more than a pet - Simba 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 Nagpur Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Simba's recovery.
Where the $500 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $360
• Hospitalization (2 nights): $75
• Medication and follow-up visits: $50
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $15
With deep gratitude,
Dola

Hang in there, Dola. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
how is Dola doing now?
Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Hanoi donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Hanoi.
Praying for you, Dola. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Looking forward to the next update. Love from Newcastle upon Tyne.
Sending good thoughts, Dola. Give Simba a hug from me. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Stockholm.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Dola.
Sure. The biggest one is emergency surgery, $360. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Appreciate you taking the time.
