Thank you for your help


UPDATE

Total costs has of the morning of the 12th was $4143.55. As of Aug 12th there is $1710.54 still owed on the bill for Zues. This unfortunately does not include the daily cost for his care at the hospital witch are around $600 a day for the 13th and 14th. The vet was going to stop all care on the 11th if we were unable to come up with another $1500 for a plasma transfusion they needed to do. We were able to come up with that thanks to a generous donation from the Willy Foundation in the states and the procedure was a success. As of this morning Zues is off intravenous drugs and walking around and eating small amounts. There is still some concern since is blood pressure is still high. He maybe be ready to be discharged on the 15th but the next 3-5 days are important. If the suechers holding the intestine together should leak or fail to hold he will need a far more expensive surgery from a specialist at the Alta-vista Animal Hospital since the Ottawa Veterinary Hospital does not have a board certified specialist. We hope to have Zues back home soon and back to his old self. All donations do need to go to the Ottawa Veterinary Hospital. It is important that it is made clear that it is for Zues. THANK YOU! ~Zeus’ Family
