Save Oscar: Carter can't afford the emergency vet
Please help Carter pay for Oscar's emergency treatment at Manukau Animal Hospital.
🇳🇿 Manukau, Auckland, New Zealand1,406 views
Oscar is my cat of six years. On 11 November we rushed to Manukau Animal Hospital with a ruptured cruciate ligament. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $1,600.
They have stabilized Oscar, but the treatment can't wait beyond January.
Oscar is more than a pet - Oscar got me through my hardest year. I have already put $330 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 Manukau Animal Hospital's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $1,600 goes:
• Medication and follow-up visits: $180
• Emergency surgery: $770
• Hospitalization (3 nights): $650
Thank you for reading my story.

Hope you get there. We're a small family in Kano but we're thinking of you.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Carter
It's all in the list in the story. medication and follow-up visits is the big one at $180, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Ask me anything else.
Hope things get better soon, Carter. Looking forward to the next update. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Kyiv.
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Manukau.
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about medication and follow-up visits, advice is welcome too. It helps to be asked.
best of luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. God bless.
So sorry you're going through this, Carter. We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean. It's not much but it's yours!
Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Cox's Bazar so I could bring a meal.
