Save Ziggy: Carmela can't afford the emergency vet

A rabbit named Ziggy needs emergency surgery - a $355 bill the family can't cover.

Ziggy is my rabbit of three years. On 9 July we rushed to the Taguig Emergency Vet Clinic with a ruptured cruciate ligament. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $355. They have stabilized Ziggy, but the treatment can't wait beyond September. Ziggy is more than a pet - Ziggy got me through my hardest year. I have already put $60 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 Taguig Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Ziggy's recovery. Where the $355 goes: • Hospitalization (3 nights): $110 • Emergency surgery: $240 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $5 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Carmela

    Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Nashville so I could bring a meal. Take care.

        It's all in the list in the story. hospitalization (3 nights) is the big one at $110, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Appreciate you taking the time.

          Keep going, Carmela. Gave what I could, wish it was more. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.
