Tiruchirappalli
Simba is my rabbit of three years. On 4 June we rushed to the Tiruchirappalli Emergency Vet Clinic with bloat. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $300. They have stabilized Simba, but the treatment can't wait beyond July. Simba is more than a pet - Simba got me through my hardest year. I have already put $40 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 Tiruchirappalli Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Simba's recovery. Where the $300 goes: • Emergency surgery: $210 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $60 • Medication and follow-up visits: $30 Thank you so much.

    rooting for you. Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Birmingham so I could bring a meal. God bless.

    • Keep going, Meena. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Enugu this morning.

      • keep going, Meena. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.

        • Sending good thoughts. Hope you get there. Greetings from Thủ Đức

          • Wishing you peace. Poor Simba, hope they feel better soon. Don't give up. Greetings from Biratnagar.

            • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 6 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Newport.

              • This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Johannesburg.

                • Hope it all works out, Meena. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.

                  • praying for you, Meena. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Tiruchirappalli.

                    • Rooting for you. Give Simba a hug from me.
