Save Willow: Ivy can't afford the emergency vet
Please help Ivy pay for Willow's emergency treatment at Rochester Animal Hospital.
🇺🇸 United States1,988 views
Willow is my dog of two years. On 2 April we rushed to Rochester Animal Hospital with kidney failure. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $2,350.
They have stabilized Willow, but the treatment can't wait beyond May.
Willow is more than a pet - Willow got me through my hardest year. I have already put $380 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 Rochester Animal Hospital's charity fund for other animals.
Where the $2,350 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $1,500
• Hospitalization (3 nights): $300
• Medication and follow-up visits: $190
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $360
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ivy
Sure. The biggest one is emergency surgery, $1,500. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one.
Good luck. Hope you get there. We're a small family in Surakarta but we're thinking of you!
praying for you. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Hope it all works out. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
