Save Ginger: Châu can't afford the emergency vet
A cat named Ginger needs an operation to remove the blockage - a $300 bill the family can't cover.

Ginger is my cat of three years. On 23 March we rushed to Hồ Chí Minh City Veterinary Centre with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $300.
They have stabilized Ginger, but the treatment can't wait beyond May.
Ginger is more than a pet - Ginger is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $30 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 Hồ Chí Minh City Veterinary Centre's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $300 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $150
• Hospitalization (3 nights): $45
• Medication and follow-up visits: $55
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $50
I hope life is good to you.

Wishing you peace, Châu. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'll check back for the next update.
sending strength, Châu. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
Sending strength, Châu. Your post was clear and honest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
poor Ginger, hope they feel better soon. All the best!
hope it all works out, Châu. We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless.
