Coco is my cat of six years. On 7 August we rushed to the Halifax Emergency Vet Clinic with kidney failure. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $1,350. They have stabilized Coco, but the treatment can't wait beyond November. Coco is more than a pet - Coco walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $230 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 the Halifax Emergency Vet Clinic's charity fund for other animals. Where the $1,350 goes: • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $270 • Medication and follow-up visits: $320 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $760 Thanks for being kind about this.

Updates from Lei

  1. Wanted to say thank you properly. 33% funded and I met with the vet clinic and confirmed the amounts.

  2. Small update. $375 so far, we've started the first stage.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($150 in total) I met with the vet clinic and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  • Poor Coco, hope they feel better soon. All the best!

    • Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Ubud but we're thinking of you.

      • Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Halifax

          Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork), advice is welcome too. I'll keep the page updated.

      • take care, Lei. Hope this works out for you. Sent it to 29 people at work

        • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Lei

          • Lei FuOwnerAnswer

            The list at the bottom is the whole picture. diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork) is the biggest at $270. Thanks, that means a lot.

          Take care, Lei. Shared it with a few friends. All the best.

          • Shared this with my family. Greetings from 6th of October City

            • You're not alone, Lei. Shared it with a few friends. I hope November is when things finally get easier. All the best.

              • You're not alone. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'll check back for the next update.

                • Good luck, Lei. Poor Coco, hope they feel better soon. After 9 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings

                  • Wishing you the best, Lei. This could happen to any of us. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Toulon

                    • A colleague of mine might know someone for this in Nova Scotia. I'll ask around and let you know.
