Help Kato save Willow - surgery needed
A tabby kitten named Willow needs orthopedic surgery - a $550 bill the family can't cover.

Willow is my tabby kitten of two years. On 20 March we rushed to Kasarani Animal Hospital with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $550.
They have stabilized Willow, but the treatment can't wait beyond May.
Willow is more than a pet - Willow is the reason I get out of bed. 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.
If more is raised than needed, the surplus goes to Kasarani Animal Hospital's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $550 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $340
• Hospitalization (2 nights): $145
• Medication and follow-up visits: $55
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $10
Thank you so much.

How is Kato doing now?
Sending love. Give Willow a hug from me. Love from Newport.
Sending love. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Kasarani.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Kato
Sure. The biggest one is emergency surgery, $340. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Ask me anything else.
Best of luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best.
Thinking of you. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Epe this morning. Thinking of Kasarani
Thanks for sharing this, Kato. Your post was clear and honest. Put this on a community board in Kanpur this morning. All the best.
