Simba is my dog of two years. On 15 September we rushed to Pune Animal Hospital with kidney failure. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $250. They have stabilized Simba, but the treatment can't wait beyond November. Simba is more than a pet - Simba is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $50 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 Pune Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Simba's recovery. Where the $250 goes: • Emergency surgery: $125 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $35 • Medication and follow-up visits: $35 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $55 Thank you for reading my story.
