Poppy is my rabbit of two years. On 12 August we rushed to Barranquilla Veterinary Centre with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $600.
They have stabilized Poppy, but the treatment can't wait beyond October.
Poppy is more than a pet - Poppy 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 Barranquilla Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Poppy's recovery.
Where the $600 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $540
• Medication and follow-up visits: $35
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $25
Thank you so much.

How is Arturo doing now?
Praying for you. Give Poppy a hug from me. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Arturo.
