Sam's Salivary Gland Surgery

[fleshflowers]

Hi everyone! I finally have an estimated bill for Sam's surgery. We discovered he has a blocked salivary gland when he went in for his neuter. He has significant swelling under his tongue which could block his airway and make it hard to breathe if not removed. I am asking for financial help for this surgery as we have exhausted all care credit from a previous ER visit with another kitty. Thank you so much.

I don't know if there are any additional avenues of support in this TCS article (see link below), but it is worth taking a look just in case.
My thoughts and prayers go to Sam and you.

I haven't raised any more yet but trying to keep up hope! Here's a photo of Sam from today. I hope everyone who celebrates has a great Christmas!

I hope everyone had a great holiday/new year! I found out that I might be able to qualify for a grant from Frankie's Friends. The only stipulation is I don't know if I would be approved for the grant until he is brought in for his surgery and then I am either accepted or denied on the spot. This is nerve wracking because they also haven't gotten back to me on what the financial guidelines are to even qualify. I sent emails but I think I will just have to call BluePearl today and see if I can get answers over the phone. I would need 15% upfront and then FF will pay $2k of the bill and then I would owe the rest.

Good luck with the FF grant!
