Dear Casis,

It's a common problem amongst rescuers, many of whom have limited funds for vet bills. NGOs are also stretched to their limits financially. Probably the best thing you can do is put out a call for help to everyone you know -- friends, family, colleagues at work, etc. Use Facebook, blogs, email, SMS, and every other means you can think of. If enough people contribute small amounts -- RM5, RM10 -- it will cover the cat's vet bill.

If you find that the vet bill is over RM500, you can apply to the Petfinder Medical Fund. You will need to provide the itemised bill from the vet clinic. To apply for funds from Petfinder members, look for the link at the bottom of this page: http://www.petfinder.my/medicalfund.htm

Wishing you and the injured cat much luck and rapid healing!

I will be happy to pray for the kitty's recovery and that the vet bills are not too high. Please let us know how he's doing! :-)

So i went to see the vet this afternoon. He had 2 sides of x ray - pelvis area seem to be okay but his leg really in bad fracture. The vet has suggested for casting for time being since i dont have enough money for surgery.

Unfortunately, the vet said he dont have casting supply at that moment and wants me to see other vet for casting. According to him the cost about RM200-RM300 .

For time being, im keeping the cat in my toilet & caged until i hv time to see 2nd opinion on next week saturday.

If anyone have suggestions, please let me know.. im not sure what to do as my fund is not enough to cover the casting cost..

Default Re: urgent help & advise - latest update 15/8/14

On 12/8/14, I brought him to another vet at klinik haiwan & surgeri puncak jalil. Even it was far from my house.. but i still dont mind to travel there. Dr Eric is a nice vet and he advised me that to do a casting for time being and keep him in the cage in order to limit his movement.. He also recomended me to do castration together since i need to keep him in a cage 2 mths.

About the cost, I decided to bear it as klinik haiwan & surgeri puncak jalil gave me a reasonable cost which i think i can cover it by myself. Cost at klinik haiwan & surgeri is RM303 & charges xray & consultation at previous klinik RM170....

We will see his progress after two months. Anyway this is my first time handling such case.

It really takes a lot of patience and time esp to clean up his waste .. If anyone have ideas how to handle this better please let me know..

Tq..... & please pray for his speed recovery.
