Teddy is my rabbit of eleven years. On 23 February we rushed to Lyon Veterinary Centre with a tumor on the spleen. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $2,450. They have stabilized Teddy, but the treatment can't wait beyond May. Teddy is more than a pet - Teddy walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $160 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 Lyon Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Teddy's recovery. Where the $2,450 goes: • Emergency surgery: $1,500 • Hospitalization (3 nights): $470 • Medication and follow-up visits: $210 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $270 Every share and every dollar helps. - Jean
