Ziggy is my tabby kitten of three years. On 7 September we rushed to Bogotá Animal Hospital with a ruptured cruciate ligament. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $650. They have stabilized Ziggy, but the treatment can't wait beyond November. Ziggy is more than a pet - Ziggy walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $55 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 Bogotá Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Ziggy's recovery. Where the $650 goes: • Medication and follow-up visits: $80 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $105 • Emergency surgery: $465 Every share and every dollar helps. - Consuelo

Updates from Consuelo

  1. 36% there. the plan for medication and follow-up visits is now scheduled. Thank you.

  2. Quick update: $236 raised so far (36%). I made the first payment toward medication and follow-up visits. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($86 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely. - Consuelo
