Save Hazel: Janhavi can't afford the emergency vet

A tabby kitten named Hazel needs an operation to remove the blockage - a $150 bill the family can't cover.

Hazel is my tabby kitten of nine years. On 26 December we rushed to Nagpur Veterinary Centre with a ruptured cruciate ligament. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $150. They have stabilized Hazel, but the treatment can't wait beyond March. Hazel is more than a pet - Hazel got me through my hardest year. I have already put $40 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 Nagpur Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Hazel's recovery. Where the $150 goes: • Medication and follow-up visits: $30 • Hospitalization (4 nights): $50 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $70 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Janhavi
