Ollie is my senior cat of three years. On 8 September we rushed to the San Diego Emergency Vet Clinic with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $800. They have stabilized Ollie, but the treatment can't wait beyond November. Ollie is more than a pet - Ollie is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $310 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 San Diego Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Ollie's recovery. Where the $800 goes: • Hospitalization (3 nights): $360 • Medication and follow-up visits: $185 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $255 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
