Save Buddy: Gregory can't afford the emergency vet

Buddy is my senior cat of two years. On 17 July we rushed to Manchester Veterinary Centre with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $2,000. They have stabilized Buddy, but the treatment can't wait beyond October. Buddy is more than a pet - Buddy got me through my hardest year. I have already put $155 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 Manchester Veterinary Centre's charity fund for other animals. Where the $2,000 goes: • Emergency surgery: $1,250 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $480 • Medication and follow-up visits: $110 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $160 Thanks for being kind about this. - Gregory

      Take care, Gregory. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Lagos but we're thinking of you. All the best.
