We recently took our 7-year-old cat, Kiki, to the vet because we were concerned she might have a urinary tract infection. It was a difficult decision, as we only want the best for her.

During our visit, the vet informed us that Kiki has a tooth that needs to be extracted and that there are three small stones in her bladder. This situation requires surgery, and we were given an estimate of $2,544.17. Unfortunately, the vet also mentioned that this amount could increase if there are any complications or unforeseen issues.

As retirees living on fixed incomes, we simply cannot afford this expense. Kiki is not just a pet; she’s a loving and gentle companion who brings so much joy to our lives. We are reaching out in hopes of helping to cover the cost of her surgery and could help us take care of her without putting our finances in jeopardy. Any monetary assistance will be sincerely appreciated as we want to ensure that Kiki receives the care she needs.

Thank you for considering our situation.

Update: We recently received a 2nd opinion and the estimate for services was even more at $2,754
