Buddy is my tabby kitten of six years. On 28 April we rushed to Mbarara Veterinary Centre with a tumor on the spleen. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $350. They have stabilized Buddy, but the treatment can't wait beyond August. Buddy is more than a pet - Buddy is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $45 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 Mbarara Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Buddy's recovery. Where the $350 goes: • Emergency surgery: $230 • Hospitalization (3 nights): $65 • Medication and follow-up visits: $30 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $25 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
