Bruno is my cat of two years. On 17 December we rushed to Port Harcourt Animal Hospital with severe tick fever. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $250. They have stabilized Bruno, but the treatment can't wait beyond February. Bruno is more than a pet - Bruno is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $55 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 Port Harcourt Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Bruno's recovery. Where the $250 goes: • Emergency surgery: $110 • Hospitalization (3 nights): $55 • Medication and follow-up visits: $40 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $45 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Ronke

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($40 in total) we've started the first stage. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely. - Ronke
