Ziggy is my rabbit of three years. On 28 December we rushed to Bonny Animal Hospital with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $150. They have stabilized Ziggy, but the treatment can't wait beyond February. Ziggy is more than a pet - Ziggy is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $25 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 Bonny Animal Hospital and I'll share the invoice and an update on Ziggy's recovery. Where the $150 goes: • Medication and follow-up visits: $25 • Hospitalization (3 nights): $95 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $30 Thanks for being kind about this. - Segun

Updates from Segun

  1. Update from Bonny: I met with the vet clinic and confirmed the amounts. We're at 20% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

        • Suresh M. ShuklaQuestion

          Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Segun.

          • Segun Uchenna IbrahimOwnerAnswerPhoto verified

            Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. medication and follow-up visits comes first ($25) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid.

        • Halima Blessing Ekwueme

          good luck, Segun. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My husband and I read this together.

          • Lourdes D. FernándezQuestion

            is there anything that isn't money that would help Segun?

            • Segun Uchenna IbrahimOwnerAnswerPhoto verified

              Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about medication and follow-up visits, advice is welcome too. Ask me anything else.

          • Lipi Lamia Ahmed

            it takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best

                  Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 8 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Jakarta Barat
