Little Leia’s Emergency

On the evening of January 10th, my dog Leia was hit by a car. Luckily, Leia suffered no broken bones, but severe bruising to her organs and a tear in a her bladder. She had surgery on January 11th to fix the tear. She is stable now, but she still needs to be hospitalized for a few more nights. My partner and I footed this bill, and may need to pay more for the aftercare (getting an estimate tomorrow morning for everything else). We are asking for some help as this has put a strain on our finances. Anyway that you can help the little squirrel will mean so much to us! VCA Knowles Central Hospital has been amazing in keeping me updated with pictures and calls, and I am so happy she is receiving such great care. We hope she has a speedy recovery, and thanks for your help!

Here’s a summary of the care/fees she recieved:

Xrays - they also charged for radiology interpretation

Ultrasound

IV fluids

Pain medication

Antibiotics

Hospitalization 2+ nights

Surgery (Bladder Repair Routine)

Exam Fee
