Save Buddy: Maryna can't afford the emergency vet
A senior cat named Buddy needs a hospital stay and surgery - a $650 bill the family can't cover.

Buddy is my senior cat of nine years. On 21 May we rushed to the Odesa Emergency Vet Clinic with a broken leg after a road accident. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $650.
They have stabilized Buddy, but the treatment can't wait beyond August.
Buddy is more than a pet - Buddy is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $70 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 the Odesa Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Buddy's recovery.
Where the $650 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $430
• Medication and follow-up visits: $60
• Hospitalization (3 nights): $160
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Poor Buddy, hope they feel better soon. Love from Hialeah.
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Odesa!
Thank you. If you're in Odesa I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for looking so closely.
Hope things get better soon. I hope things turn around soon. Please keep us posted. Take care!
Keep going, Maryna. Hope this works out for you. Greetings from Kolkata.
Sending love. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Odesa.
Wishing you the best, Maryna. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best
