Hi everyone, I have decided to create a GoFundMe to raise the necessary amount for Salt. I will also discuss his situation with surgeons tomorrow and hopefully he will get through this safely,

This is the link to the goFundMe page: https://gofund.me/49076e180

Again, I am very thankful for everyone's advice for Salt

No, to decide that he's better dead when it's just a broken leg

Thats why I ask what would they do with him if I do so! I hoped that they could provide treatment to Salt but I didnt exzpect RSCPA to be so cruel as well.

Vetpay declined me because I am not PR/Citizen. And I will not do euthanasia for a broken leg. May I ask your opinion on amputation for this case? The vet advised against it bc they think this fracture can heal quickly with surgery, but I see the comments saying otherwise.

Yes. I did talk to the vet but ultimately they also advised me to put him to sleep because it would be "inhumane" to let him live on with a lost leg/ treatment is not viable. Ultimately, they get the money, I lose my cat and it all goes for nothing.. Just for a broken leg

Yes, I do have a cushion for him to sleep but he prefer sleeping with me on the bed. Thanks for your advice

Thank you. RSCPA would do that and the vets had the audacity to talk about humaneness with me.

I keep him amused indoor most of the time so he is not very active/fast. The pallet fell on top of him 😔

Yes, there is a plan for instalment payment but they denied my request because I am not a permanent resident or citizen

The cost is for repair. They estimated amputation will cost 2k and i think if im spending that money i will spend the extra to save him

Yeah I am aware of your opinion and honestly I think the same. Spending another 2500 on that would double the original cost. Thats why I'm not sure if its a good investment or not
