Mango is my tabby kitten of six years. On 15 July we rushed to Los Angeles Animal Hospital with severe tick fever. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $2,350. They have stabilized Mango, but the treatment can't wait beyond September. Mango is more than a pet - Mango is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. 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. Funds will be paid straight to Los Angeles Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Mango's recovery. Where the $2,350 goes: • Emergency surgery: $1,450 • Hospitalization (4 nights): $310 • Medication and follow-up visits: $360 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $230 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • So sorry you're going through this, Tyler. Looking forward to the next update. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Los Angeles.

    • Thinking of you, Tyler. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.

      • Thinking of you, Tyler. Looking forward to the next update. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

        • Thinking of you and your family, Tyler. Hope this works out for you

          • Stay strong, Tyler. Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Scranton so I could bring a meal

            • Good luck, Tyler. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did
