Help for Prince's ER Vet Bill
If any of you know me, you know that Prince Charming (Prince for short) is my angel. I never talk about him without sharing pictures of him and bragging. He's my best friend. I've raised him since he was 8 weeks old and we've been inseparable since. He has the sweetest little soul. He is never aggressive, he loves to talk, he snuggles with me all through the night, and he's the first to greet me at the door every day.
I found out today that he is suffering yet again from a urinary blockage. He had one just a few months ago, and I lucked out in finding an ER vet at 2am that would unblock him for $170 (which was everything I had to my name). Unfortunately, this time it is a much more complicated blockage. He is totally obstructed, screaming in pain, and wouldn't even lick at his favorite food. The procedure for him costs anywhere from $1000-$1500, possibly more. Although I am employed, I've been hit with serious financial upsets in the last few months. I've had to lose several weeks of work due to a recent medical complication of my own, have had to move, and have had to use every bit of my income to try to catch up on my monthly bills. I simply cannot afford to save my baby, and i have no idea what else to do. Before these last few months, he was always taken to the vet and I've made sure to get him everything that he needs, and right now I feel like I am failing him. I didn't qualify for Care Credit and all of the local charities that are for low income people say that I make too much to qualify. My last option was to make this before I'm forced to euthanize him. My heart would shatter into a thousand pieces if I had to let him suffer or put him down because I couldn't afford to help him when he needs me.
If you can help at all, any little bit would make a difference. I know that this is a typical post, but I truly have no options, and I had to at least try for my baby boy.
Thank you all so much for reading.
Much love from Prince and I.
