I'm devastated today--I just buried Mozart Cat 7/12/12 after spending $300 at Vet 7/9/12 and $498 at Vet 6/27/12 for Shiloh & Sampson Dogs and this morning while grooming Daphne and clipping her fingernails, I jut found a blackish color large tumor growth around her nipple. I just became unemployed and now I can't afford any more vet bills until I regain employment--when it rains it pours!!
Do you know of any Vets in the Raleigh/Cary/Morrisville/Apex/Durham (I would drive distance if necessary) area that would work with me to make payments or help me care for my cat right away?
khouston, I am so sorry to read abt your kitty and also the tough times you find yourself in right now....I am praying you find a clinic that will help you out...I will send you this that I've heard some posters have used(forget where)...its a credit card for just such times that will allow monthly payments...I hope this helps
You can also goggle things like funds for vet care, cancer help for pets, etc. There are groups that help cover vet costs for owners in need. Be aware of course that it isn't a sure thing, which is why you should email as many of them as you can find to maximize your chances of finding help.
Carecredit is great- it often allows you a certain amount of time interest free to pay off the bill. I've used it many times. Just be aware that the interest is very high if you don't pay it off in time
I don't know where your vet school is there but find it and give them a call. They are more likely to work with you and may even have grants available for some of the treatment. A frend of mine had his dog at the Univerity of Illinois and had a bill in the thousands. They worked with him and provided two CT scans without cost to him because they had a grant.
My heart goes out to you and Daphne. You're a responsible animal person and you don't deserve this misfortune.
