Eli is a 10 month old Maine Coon in North Providence, RI, who needs $2,000 for Surgery on Stomach.

My beautiful Eli swallowed a small piece of foam and had to have surgery. The veterinary hospital gave me a low figure and a high figure for final cost. I almost threw up. Just when the worst day of my life is happening, I also had to worry if I could afford to save him! My precious little lion came home today. The bill was paid, but now I am strapped with paying a bill that I can't afford. Help

Eli was brought to Ocean State Veterinary Services in East Greenwich, RI. He was put on iv fluids immediately. Bloodwork and xrays were taken followed by an ultrasound. The discovery of the blockage was made and surgery was scheduled.

Eli is the sweetest little lion. He loves to snuggle with me. He is so cute when he throws his head back and waits for my kisses. All of the vet techs at the hospital wanted to take him home. He was so loveable even going through the pain that he endured. He is simply my baby. I would have been devastated and lost if Eli had passed. It makes me ill to even think of losing him. I love him so much.

I am a teacher, therefore, I do not make a lot of money. My husband and I recently separated and this veterinary bill is my responsibility. Since all of the bills are my responsibility now, I desperately need help.
