Help Laxmi save Oscar - surgery needed
A tabby kitten named Oscar needs an operation to remove the blockage - a $250 bill the family can't cover.

Oscar is my tabby kitten of six years. On 31 March we rushed to the Lalitpur Emergency Vet Clinic with a ruptured cruciate ligament. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $250.
They have stabilized Oscar, but the treatment can't wait beyond June.
Oscar is more than a pet - Oscar is the reason I get out of bed. 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 the Lalitpur Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Oscar's recovery.
Where the $250 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $130
• Hospitalization (2 nights): $50
• Medication and follow-up visits: $35
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $35
Thank you so much.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Laxmi
Emergency surgery is $130 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Let me know if you want more detail.
Wishing you the best. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.
So sorry you're going through this, Laxmi. Hope the recovery goes smoothly
Hope it all works out, Laxmi. Hope the recovery goes smoothly. I'll check back for the next update.
