Max is my senior cat of three years. On 5 August we rushed to San Diego Veterinary Centre with a tumor on the spleen. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $1,950. They have stabilized Max, but the treatment can't wait beyond October. Max is more than a pet - Max is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $310 toward the bills and asked for a payment plan. Whatever I can't raise, I'll repay to anyone who needs it back. If more is raised than needed, the surplus goes to San Diego Veterinary Centre's charity fund for other animals. Where the $1,950 goes: • Hospitalization (3 nights): $320 • Medication and follow-up visits: $370 • Emergency surgery: $1,260 Thank you so much. - Janet
