Save Poppy: Leonardo can't afford the emergency vet
A senior cat named Poppy needs an operation to remove the blockage - a $800 bill the family can't cover.

Poppy is my senior cat of nine years. On 4 November we rushed to the Ciudad de México Emergency Vet Clinic with severe tick fever. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $800.
They have stabilized Poppy, but the treatment can't wait beyond February.
Poppy is more than a pet - Poppy walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $95 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 the Ciudad de México Emergency Vet Clinic's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $800 goes:
• Hospitalization (2 nights): $150
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $90
• Emergency surgery: $560
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean. We're a small family in Joliet but we're thinking of you. All the best
Good luck. We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean. Blessings.
so sorry you're going through this, Leonardo. This could happen to any of us. I hope February is when things finally get easier. Take care.
Thanks for sharing this, Leonardo. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Ciudad de México!
Poor Poppy, hope they feel better soon. Wish I lived closer to Cầu Giấy so I could bring a meal. God bless
you're not alone. Looking forward to the next update. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
