Help Rosa save Rocky - surgery needed
Rocky, Rosa's rabbit, needs urgent treatment for pyometra costing $400.
🇨🇴 Barranquilla, Atlántico, ColombiaPosted May 10, 20261,582 views
Rocky is my rabbit of three years. On 16 April we rushed to Barranquilla Animal Hospital with pyometra. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $400.
They have stabilized Rocky, but the treatment can't wait beyond June.
Rocky is more than a pet - Rocky is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. 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.
Funds will be paid straight to Barranquilla Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Rocky's recovery.
Where the $400 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $270
• Medication and follow-up visits: $70
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $60
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope June is when things finally get easier. All the best.
Wishing you the best, Rosa. Your post was clear and honest. Love from Leeds.
Hope things get better soon, Rosa. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Keep going, Rosa. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 13 people at work. Thinking of Barranquilla.
Take care, Rosa. Hope the recovery goes smoothly

Thinking of you, Rosa. Shared this with my family. My husband and I read this together. God bless.
