Save Oscar: Arun can't afford the emergency vet

Oscar is my three-legged dog of thirteen years. On 14 September we rushed to Nashik Animal Hospital with a ruptured cruciate ligament. The vet recommends a hospital stay and surgery, and the estimate came to $350. They have stabilized Oscar, but the treatment can't wait beyond December. Oscar is more than a pet - Oscar is the reason I get out of bed. 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 Nashik Animal Hospital's charity fund for other animals. Where the $350 goes: • Emergency surgery: $200 • Hospitalization (3 nights): $100 • Medication and follow-up visits: $45 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $5 With deep gratitude, Arun
