Save Poppy: Diya can't afford the emergency vet
Please help Diya pay for Poppy's emergency treatment at Montréal Animal Hospital.
Anywhere in the world1,676 views
Poppy is my dog of nine years. On 19 August we rushed to Montréal Animal Hospital with a tumor on the spleen. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $1,900.
They have stabilized Poppy, but the treatment can't wait beyond October.
Poppy is more than a pet - Poppy got me through my hardest year. I have already put $220 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 Montréal Animal Hospital's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $1,900 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $770
• Hospitalization (4 nights): $780
• Medication and follow-up visits: $125
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $225
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
Updates from Diya
We're at 17% thanks to 8 of you. I made the first payment toward diagnostics. More news soon.
Update from Montréal: we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. We're at 7% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Diya!
Sure. The biggest one is emergency surgery, $770. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Fair thing to want to know.
Wishing you peace, Diya. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Stay strong. Looking forward to the next update. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Montréal.
