Emergency vet bill for Tucker in Scranton
Tucker, Bennett's cat, needs urgent treatment for bloat costing $3,300.
🇺🇸 Scranton, Pennsylvania, United States5,533 views
Tucker is my cat of nine years. On 18 September we rushed to the Scranton Emergency Vet Clinic with bloat. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $3,300.
They have stabilized Tucker, but the treatment can't wait beyond November.
Tucker is more than a pet - Tucker is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $230 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 the Scranton Emergency Vet Clinic's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $3,300 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $2,150
• Hospitalization (2 nights): $620
• Medication and follow-up visits: $140
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $390
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Poor Tucker, hope they feel better soon. My neighbor in Rio de Janeiro donated after I showed her your page.
hope it all works out, Bennett. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Dresden.
Praying for you, Bennett. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
