Save Biscuit: Ivy can't afford the emergency vet
Please help Ivy pay for Biscuit's emergency treatment at Mandeville Animal Hospital.
🇯🇲 Mandeville, Manchester, Jamaica2,027 views
Biscuit is my senior cat of three years. On 28 July we rushed to Mandeville Animal Hospital with kidney failure. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $600.
They have stabilized Biscuit, but the treatment can't wait beyond October.
Biscuit is more than a pet - Biscuit is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $75 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 Mandeville Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Biscuit's recovery.
Where the $600 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $260
• Hospitalization (4 nights): $175
• Medication and follow-up visits: $70
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $95
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Any update on how things are going in Mandeville?
Take care, Ivy. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Mandeville
Thank you. If you're in Mandeville I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Ask me anything else.
praying for you. Hope this works out for you. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care
hope this works out for you. Sent it to 5 people at work. Take care
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
sending strength, Ivy. Looking forward to the next update. I hope October is when things finally get easier.
poor Biscuit, hope they feel better soon. After 26 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything!
wishing you the best, Ivy. Give Biscuit a hug from me.
