Tucker is my cat of nine years. On 11 March we rushed to San Antonio Veterinary Centre with severe tick fever. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $700. They have stabilized Tucker, but the treatment can't wait beyond May. Tucker is more than a pet - Tucker is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $190 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 Antonio Veterinary Centre's charity fund for other animals. Where the $700 goes: • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $160 • Medication and follow-up visits: $310 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $230 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
