Save Ginger: Brendan can't afford the emergency vet
A rabbit named Ginger needs a hospital stay and surgery - a $2,250 bill the family can't cover.

Ginger is my rabbit of eleven years. On 5 June we rushed to the Dublin Emergency Vet Clinic with a ruptured cruciate ligament. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $2,250.
They have stabilized Ginger, but the treatment can't wait beyond September.
Ginger is more than a pet - Ginger walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $210 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 Dublin Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Ginger's recovery.
Where the $2,250 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $1,250
• Hospitalization (3 nights): $530
• Medication and follow-up visits: $290
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $180
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

So sorry you're going through this. Your post was clear and honest. I hope September is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Córdoba.
Hang in there, Brendan. Poor Ginger, hope they feel better soon
Sending love. Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Dublin
How is Brendan doing now?
Hang in there. Shared it with a few friends. It's not much but it's yours.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Brendan.
Emergency surgery is $1,250 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Thanks, that means a lot.
Wishing you peace, Brendan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
