Save Nala: Gonzalo can't afford the emergency vet

Nala, Gonzalo's senior cat, needs urgent treatment for severe tick fever costing $550.

Nala is my senior cat of thirteen years. On 20 August we rushed to the Buenos Aires Emergency Vet Clinic with severe tick fever. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $550. They have stabilized Nala, but the treatment can't wait beyond November. Nala is more than a pet - Nala walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $45 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 Buenos Aires Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Nala's recovery. Where the $550 goes: • Hospitalization (4 nights): $75 • Emergency surgery: $430 • Medication and follow-up visits: $45 If you're reading this, thank you. - Gonzalo
