Milo's a ruptured cruciate ligament: help with the vet bill
A rabbit named Milo needs emergency surgery - a $2,500 bill the family can't cover.
🇮🇪 Dublin, Leinster, Ireland1,367 views
Milo is my rabbit of six years. On 18 December we rushed to the Dublin Emergency Vet Clinic with a ruptured cruciate ligament. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $2,500.
They have stabilized Milo, but the treatment can't wait beyond March.
Milo is more than a pet - Milo got me through my hardest year. I have already put $170 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 Dublin Emergency Vet Clinic's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $2,500 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $1,450
• Hospitalization (3 nights): $390
• Medication and follow-up visits: $310
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $350
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Sending love. Hope this works out for you. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care
Sending love, Saoirse. Hope the recovery goes smoothly. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Saoirse.
It's all in the list in the story. emergency surgery is the big one at $1,450, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Happy to explain more.
Wishing you the best, Saoirse. It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 24 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
any update on how things are going in Dublin?
Praying for you, Saoirse. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.
Sending love, Saoirse. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
hope the recovery goes smoothly. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Your post was clear and honest. I hope March is when things finally get easier. All the best
so sorry you're going through this. Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
