Archie is my cat of two years. On 25 September we rushed to Bari Veterinary Centre with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $1,750. They have stabilized Archie, but the treatment can't wait beyond December. Archie is more than a pet - Archie is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $90 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 Bari Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Archie's recovery. Where the $1,750 goes: • Emergency surgery: $950 • Hospitalization (4 nights): $400 • Medication and follow-up visits: $240 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $160 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Marisa
