Ollie is my rescue greyhound of thirteen years. On 23 September we rushed to Rajkot Animal Hospital with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $350. They have stabilized Ollie, but the treatment can't wait beyond December. Ollie is more than a pet - Ollie got me through my hardest year. I have already put $60 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 Rajkot Animal Hospital's charity fund for other animals. Where the $350 goes: • Emergency surgery: $210 • Hospitalization (3 nights): $65 • Medication and follow-up visits: $30 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $45 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Tushar
