Save Ziggy: Pooja can't afford the emergency vet

A three-legged dog named Ziggy needs emergency surgery - a $350 bill the family can't cover.

Ziggy is my three-legged dog of nine years. On 16 August we rushed to Butwal Veterinary Centre with a broken leg after a road accident. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $350. They have stabilized Ziggy, but the treatment can't wait beyond December. Ziggy is more than a pet - Ziggy walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $35 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 Butwal Veterinary Centre's charity fund for other animals. Where the $350 goes: • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $20 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $80 • Emergency surgery: $250 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Pooja
