Ollie is my cat of three years. On 20 August we rushed to Latina Animal Hospital with pyometra. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $1,400. They have stabilized Ollie, but the treatment can't wait beyond October. Ollie is more than a pet - Ollie is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $280 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 Latina Animal Hospital's charity fund for other animals. Where the $1,400 goes: • Emergency surgery: $830 • Hospitalization (3 nights): $270 • Medication and follow-up visits: $130 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $170 If you're reading this, thank you. - Veronika

  • So sorry you're going through this, Veronika. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Latina.

    • Good luck, Veronika. Hope the recovery goes smoothly. Love from Jakarta.

      • Thanks for sharing this, Veronika. I hope things turn around soon

        • Sending strength, Veronika. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.

          • Sending good thoughts, Veronika. Shared it with a few friends. Blessings.

            • Hang in there. Hope the recovery goes smoothly.
