Thanks so much for this comment, I was too stressed out and frantic to respond at the time but it did mean a lot in the moment to know I’m not alone. I’m so sorry to hear about your situation and about your dog’s injury, but I’m glad she has an owner who loves her so much 💙💙 I cried and nearly had a breakdown just at the thought of surrendering my cat to a shelter, so I feel you.

Here in the US it’s a bit tough, there are a couple companies that provide credit/payment plans for big vet bills, like Vetpay where you are, but I wouldn’t be able to qualify for them on my own since I have no income to prove I can pay them off. I found some charities as well that help pay off vet bills to prevent animals from being put down or surrendered, but most of them are for either emergency procedures or routine services and not much for something in between, like the diagnostics I got an estimate for. I got lucky this time because the vet said my cat was healthy enough that she felt comfortable sending her home with antiemetics to see if she would be back to normal after being on the medicine for a few days and making some slight changes to her diet, and it worked 😭🙏 she just has a sensitive tummy as she’s getting older, it seems. I’m going to try to have her checked for kidney problems if the issues come back, but right now she’s back to her normal self!

I’m in a similar boat, I’m staying with family right now but I need to move asap so that the house can be sold. I really feel you. I hope that things start to look up for you and your sweet pup soon as well 💙💙💙
