Onitsha

Ziggy is my rescue greyhound of three years. On 23 May we rushed to Onitsha Veterinary Centre with severe tick fever. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $300. They have stabilized Ziggy, but the treatment can't wait beyond August. Ziggy is more than a pet - Ziggy 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 Onitsha Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Ziggy's recovery. Where the $300 goes: • Emergency surgery: $200 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $60 • Medication and follow-up visits: $25 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $15 Thanks for being kind about this. - Lola
