#Emergency vet

[arsonistmoth]

Please, If you can spare anything, help me get my boy to the vet.

I know yall just got me help in getting to the dentist and I hate to ask for more but my cat, my poor boy, he's been sick for the last few days. He's been sneezing, his nose has been runny and raw, and now part of the bridge of his nose is swollen outwards and I am. terrified. I want to get him to the vet ASAP but I have nothing in my bank account. His usual vet, whos been so nice and helpful, is 159usd per exam fee. Plus an extra 100 for whatever meds he might need my goal is 259usd I know its a lot to ask but please, my boy is miserable rn and he can hardly breathe. I can't let him suffer like this I just cant.

If you can spare even a little please help. Paypal: @ Goatsgalore96 Venmo @ CallenGGoat Cashapp: $calgoat96 0/259usd

I need help with Izzys emergency vet bill!

I'm so scared of losing her. She's my first puppy, and I have no idea what she could've gotten into! Her face and neck are so swollen please, if you could donate anything or just share, I would be forever grateful 🙏

hey guys - i hate having to do this, but my cat has been displaying symptoms of an infection tonight and I don't have the means or money necessary to get her to a vet. She's an elderly cat and I'm worried that if I don't get her help ASAP she might get very ill. I would greatly greatly appreciate any help I can get with this, for the vet bills and transport.

I had to run Kida (grey one) to the emergency vet where she got CPR. Plus they're keeping her overnight.

To think they would charge more than $3,000 with NO payment plan?? Upfront only??? Plus there might be more charges??? 😢

Not only was I crying because my cat was dying, but they were ready to pull her out of care in case I couldn't promise with a signature to fork over $4,000~ in one payment.

Now I'm crying on the way home because we can hardly afford our mortgage as is. 😟 I'm making sure she gets out of this, but I'm wondering if I should re-home all of our cats...

Smudge fell over, and then kept falling over. At emergency again now, poor darling.

Sorry to beg, but if anyone can buy some art or donate to me or anything to help out with financing this it would be seriously appreciated. My poor little man 🥺

The past 24 hrs for me: got home from working the weekend to house smelling weird and my cat dying, mouth blue, blood on him, drooling. Emergency vet, he’s hospitalized. While at work at 1 am i have ti leave, call the electric company, there are several gas leaks in my house. Gas gets shut off. Gas leaks are frim furnace piping, furnace has been on a month, gas leaks have been happening for same time, ive been incredibly sick, tired and dizzy and my animals have been sick. We have the answer.

Alert landlord this morning, spend morning cleaning and listening to maintenance tear out ALL the old piping and replace it, get gas turned on, no more leaks! Call vet, cat is better and can come home!

Its been. Not fun.

Guess whose broccoli burps landed her in the ER at 2 am. I’ll give you a hint. It wasn’t me.

It was only 1/4 cup cooked broccoli with nothing on it but apparently that was enough to upset her tummy big time. She was restless all night. Not pacing or retching but wouldn’t settle and go to sleep. At 11 pm I gave her some Omeprazole incase it was a tummy ache but she wasn’t showing any other symptoms until 2 am when she started to have some bloating, stomach pain and diarrhea (she NEVER has diarrhea).

I gave her max dose of Simethicone before driving across town to the emergency vet. By the time we got there she was burping repeatedly in the vet techs face (who still deemed her the favorite patient of the night bc she’s so good at the vet 🥲) It was some bloating but not GDV. They said I did everything right & gave the proper medications for the situation and they were kind enough not to charge me for bringing her in.

Ironically I already had an 8 am vet apt scheduled for sedated xrays. They said as of now it’s not an emergency but to get extra X-rays during that apt just in case. That’s in 2 1/2 hrs. I haven’t slept all night and as soon as we got home from the ER Mandana started retching. It freaked me out all over again but she stopped soon after and is sleeping soundly now. She’s gonna have the best sedated nap tomorrow and I’ll be lucky to make it there and back in one piece.

# # TRIGGER WARNING, PET DEATH

-

TLDR: My house rabbit Sam passed away today (7th Dec 2023). I am utterly heartbroken, and on top of it all I still have to pay for his £1500 vet bills and his cremation.

I have an important announcement to make. My 9 year old house rabbit, Sam, crossed the rainbow bridge today. He passed away at home, comfortably in his blankets.

I went to feed him his food and medication at 12pm today, and I noticed he was breathing fast. I tried to give him some of his syringe food and water, but it was running out of his mouth. I stopped giving it him and noticed he was trying to breathe through his mouth and he was struggling. I was home alone, but I rang the vets anyway even though I knew I had no lift to get there. They said that I could send them a video of what his breathing was like to see if I needed to bring him in. I sent them some videos, and then held him close and gave him many cuddles and kisses, holding him close and telling him how much of a good boy he was. An hour passed, and I couldn't stand waiting any longer. I rang the vets back and said I wanted to bring him in, and I would ring my mum so I could take him in as soon as possible. I placed him back in his pen, gave him some head pats, and he started trying to move his head and his front end to get comfy. I left the room at 1:48pm to get all my things ready for the vets. I came back at 1:52pm, and Sam had passed away, wrapped in his blankets, in his comfy pen. He had waited for me to leave the room before he crossed the rainbow bridge. I tried to see if I could save him; I even tried bunny CPR on him. But he was gone. I held him close and cried, telling him how brave he was and how much I loved him.

Almost everyone in our family said goodbye. My mum came home shortly after with the dog, and she and I cried together. My brother told Sam to go play with Monty (my previous house rabbit who passed in October 2022) over the rainbow bridge. We even let Elsa (my other house rabbit and Sam's companion) see Sam one last time; she sniffed him and nudged him, but then started to freak out and got really stressed, so we had to put her back in her own pen. (She is doing better now, but I think she knows what has happened and is just as upset).

We eventually took Sam to the vets around 3pm, so we could get them to cremate him. All the vets there were really kind and sympathetic, and chalked it up to that the little guy just couldn't keep fighting any longer, even though he had been so strong before. They all told me how much of a good job I did trying to help Sam, with me getting up every 2 hours for the last 2 and a half weeks to feed him and make sure he was okay. They gave me some of his fur, let me give him some final head scritches and kisses, and I said one last goodbye to my little trooper.

My heart is in pieces tonight. He brought so much joy into mine and my family's life, and everyone who had met him utterly adored him. I adopted him in January 2023, and even though I knew him for just under a year, he has helped me stay positive and given me so much happiness and many fond memories. He has left pawprints on my heart, and I will never forget him. I am currently with Elsa, giving her all my love as I know she will need it after losing her best friend.

I am still having to pay for Sam's £1500 vet bills even after his passing as well as his cremation, and I have very little savings left.

I have been selling my things on E🅱️ay here

I'm sorry I always ask this. I really am. I'm desperate for help rn.

My senior cat Skye isn't eating much anymore. She seems to be okay otherwise, but it's just really worrying me. She's 16. I've had her since I was 11 and she was just a baby.

I need to take her to the vet. If you can spare anything, please send it my way.

A friend of mine had a scare yesterday when her tiny tiny dog managed to slip out a second story window and learned she couldn't fly the hard way!

Luckily the poor pup has no breaks or internal damage, and has been given medication for the bumps and bruises she suffered (given that she's only like 4 pounds soaking wet, she's very lucky).

Her owner, a friend of mine since high school, could still really use some help with the vet bills because their household was already financially stressed before this little dog escapade.

Spreading the word and any donations are both equally appreciated!

Hello friends I am taking my cat to the emergency vet because the idiot ate about 6 inches of string from a toy and this is going to cost me a minimum of $500 which i don't have because I'm still unemployed. If anyone could help at all it would mean the world to me.

Hey friends. I really hate to ask for help especially with everything going on right now but our cat Kandi is sick from an unknown illness. The ER vet is keeping her overnight and running tests but we don't know what's wrong with her. Unfortuntly this is the latest in a series of emergencies the last few months that have left us pretty much out of funds. If you can donate we would be really thankful, if all you can do is share we are still grateful

Indie was not thrilled about having to go clean the OR.... So she had someone else do it while she supervised. 😉🩺

Literally anything helps

Last week my sweet 6 month old puppy, Junie, had an accident. She tried to jump onto something way too high and landed on her hind leg badly, fracturing her tibia. Because puppies heal so quickly, she needed surgery ASAP to make sure her leg healed correctly. Thankfully, a vet was able to operate the very next day, but now I’m facing an overwhelming vet bill of nearly $3,000—not including the emergency visit and medication costs.

I’m a student working a job that barely gives me any hours, and I’m struggling to cover this on my own. If you’re able to donate anything, it would mean the world to me and Junie. Even just sharing this would help so much. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Midnight at the emergency vet with this poor baby whose bottom hurts and whose tummy is queasy. Not looking forward to the bill but that’s preferable to a real emergency situation if we tried to ignore it. Poor little man.

Updates on Mom and Chloe

Long story short, Mom is home and Chloe has to have surgery on Thursday.

Mom

Mom came home last Thursday. It took an hour and a half each way for me, to Philadelphia and back home. It was a rough drive, rush hour on the way there, and the tail end of rush hour on the way back, in the rain at night. She's doing well, getting home nursing and physical therapy.

Chloe

Saturday evening I discovered a large mass/sore on the inside of Chloe's hind right leg. I immediately scooped her up and took her to the emergency vet. They shaved the area to get a better look. The mass/sore was 4cm and ulcerated, but not infected. They were unable to tell me what it was based on the exam. There was nothing to be done that night, so they sent us home. Yesterday morning I called and rescheduled Chloe's appointment to yesterday afternoon. The mass measured 3cm. I'm also terrified because she's had some weight loss. She's still eating and drinking and acting pretty normally, except for hiding a bit more than usual. Surgery for removal is scheduled for Thursday, and it will be sent for pathology. I feel terribly guilty that I hadn't found this mass earlier, it was so large. But no one had seen it, as she has been getting weekly temperature checks and quick exams for the last two months. The vet tried to reassure me and tell me it's amazing I found it at all because animals are so good at hiding things. I'm trying to stay positive, but I'm so scared. I know she needs the surgery, but I feel terrible for having to put her through that, knowing she'll be so scared and confused and in pain post-op. But it will help her because now that I know about the mass, I can tell she's having discomfort from it, and the removal will alleviate that.

Just please send prayers and good vibes to both my mom and my Chloe. And if you're so inclined, you can donate to or share my gofundme from last year. It is still active, and I plan on updating it soon regarding the upcoming surgery.

Things have just been crazy here, and I haven’t been on tumblr for almost a week. I’m hanging in there, though, and my anxiety is high but manageable.
