Save Pumpkin from Painful Ear Hematoma
UPDATE: Her ear is so swollen that you cannot see inside her ear.
Hello,
My little kitty Pumpkin had a hematoma in her ear. The vet was able to drain it and prescribed medication for ear mites. After spending $430 at the vet a few days ago, her ear is starting to swell up again. I called the vet to see what the next steps are, and they told me that she will need surgery on her ear, which is estimated at a cost of $1,069. My CareCredit card is currently maxed out from her first visit, and I can't afford the surgery. I am hoping to get any help possible to get Pumpkin the care she needs. The vet said while waiting to get the surgery, her ear could get worse, and the hematoma could travel down into the ear canal. She also said that Pumpkin could irritate the other ear and get a hematoma in her other ear.
