Ziggy is my tabby kitten of six years. On 21 July we rushed to the Ciudad de México Emergency Vet Clinic with kidney failure. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $800. They have stabilized Ziggy, but the treatment can't wait beyond October. Ziggy is more than a pet - Ziggy is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $80 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 Ciudad de México Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Ziggy's recovery. Where the $800 goes: • Emergency surgery: $450 • Hospitalization (3 nights): $180 • Medication and follow-up visits: $80 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $90 Thank you so much.

    So sorry you're going through this, Iván. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless

          It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out

            Keep going, Iván. This could happen to any of us.

              Wishing you peace. I hope things turn around soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
