Save Rocky: Filippo can't afford the emergency vet
A senior cat named Rocky needs orthopedic surgery - a $1,250 bill the family can't cover.
🇮🇹 Verona, Veneto, Italy1,307 views
Rocky is my senior cat of eleven years. On 16 August we rushed to the Verona Emergency Vet Clinic with a broken leg after a road accident. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $1,250.
They have stabilized Rocky, but the treatment can't wait beyond November.
Rocky is more than a pet - Rocky is a retired therapy animal who has comforted dozens of patients. I have already put $260 toward the bills and asked for a payment plan.
Whatever I can't raise, I'll repay to anyone who needs it back.
Funds will be paid straight to the Verona Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Rocky's recovery.
Where the $1,250 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $890
• Hospitalization (3 nights): $220
• Medication and follow-up visits: $140
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
Updates from Filippo
Update from Verona: we've started the first stage. We're at 16% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Thank you all. We're at 14% now ($175). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the vet clinic and confirmed the amounts.
