Mocha's a ruptured cruciate ligament: help with the vet bill

Mocha is my dog of three years. On 10 June we rushed to Mar del Plata Veterinary Centre with a ruptured cruciate ligament. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $450. They have stabilized Mocha, but the treatment can't wait beyond September. Mocha is more than a pet - Mocha walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $95 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 Mar del Plata Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Mocha's recovery. Where the $450 goes: • Emergency surgery: $210 • Hospitalization (4 nights): $120 • Medication and follow-up visits: $65 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $55 Glad we found this place.
