Vet Bills - Blog Posts
I’m sorry.. I feel bad I don’t have any money to spare to help, because if my dog got hurt, I’d be asking for donations too… But spread the word everyone! If you’re able to donate or have any advice on how to legally pay the bill make sure to share it! I’m not sure if “Care Credit” is where you live, but it helped my friend with a big vet bill once, and it works like a credit card where you can make payments over time after using it.
I hope Rudy is able to get better soon!
Please, help me save my Rudy.
This is my pet, Rudy. She got hit by a bus a couple days ago and needs tests and surgeries that are too expensive for me and my family alone.
This was Rudy yesterday. She's awake and may look alright but all the problems she has are on the inside.
We can't have her home (she needs surgeries) and she hasn't been able to sleep without the meds unless we visit her. She even fell asleep in my mom's hand.
Please help us with anything. I'll be eternally grateful.
Shares are very appreciated too.

Please, help me save my Rudy.
On November 25, 2024, I took Cacoa to the vet for a Solensia injection. She's 18-years-old and has painful arthritis, hence the treatment. I thought her life would improve.
I was very wrong.
Her body tanked. Here are the results from the blood work and urine sample. The short version is she's severely anemic and no longer producing blood cells. As for why, the vet thinks it's due to how Solensia works and the possibility of Cacoa having cancer. She had blood work done on November 11th, and it was completely normal. This is no longer the case. The vet thinks her body was managing the cancer and the drug shut that part off and suddenly cancer flooded her body.
Her total bill, from the checkup on the November 11th all the way through today is $1418.33
I'm having a huge holiday sale in my shop right now. Use the link below to receive 45% off your purchase. All proceeds will be used to pay off Cacoa's bill. I have quilts starting as small as coasters in my shop, as well as original paintings. At the current prices, two paintings will cover this large bill.

All I wanted to do was relieve her of her pain. If I had any idea this would happen, we would've just continued living as we were.
Update: she died, here at home, on November 28th, the same day Jasper died two years ago. She's gone.
I have no idea how I'll manage my grief. 2022 was a horrific year. 2024 has been a shit year. Her health was in decline, with an anal gland rupturing into an abscess, then crystals in her urine, less energetic, less walking around all day, more sleep and sleeping on me. I just wanted to make her feel better, and now she's gone. I haven't been alone, truly alone, for 18 years. She was always with me when I was home, which is damn near 24/7 due to my disabilities. The house is too quiet.
$631/$1418.33
This is the bill thus far. On December 2nd, we will go to a laboratory, with Cacoa's body, and have an autopsy done. She will be cremated when the autopsy is complete. When proof of the drug killing her is presented to the drug manufacturer, we may be reimbursed for everything spent since the drug was administered. Until then, we will have to pay the bill, which will only grow with the cost of the autopsy and cremation. We were told those may be another $1k on the current bill.
