Save Tucker: Ouma can't afford the emergency vet
Please help Ouma pay for Tucker's emergency treatment at the Jinja Emergency Vet Clinic.
🇺🇬 Jinja, Eastern Region, Uganda884 views
Tucker is my tabby kitten of three years. On 18 October we rushed to the Jinja Emergency Vet Clinic with a tumor on the spleen. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $300.
They have stabilized Tucker, but the treatment can't wait beyond November.
Tucker is more than a pet - Tucker is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $20 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 Jinja Emergency Vet Clinic's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $300 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $230
• Hospitalization (3 nights): $35
• Medication and follow-up visits: $20
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $15
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
