I feel like a total leech for asking this...but...I don't really know what else to do.
Two days ago, my guinea pig broke her leg, and we have no idea how. We got her up to the vet and they had a look at her. Turns out it's quite a bad break, and there are only a few ways to deal with it.
They could put a splint on it, which would have to be changed every few weeks, and is extremely awkward for her. Each change would cost several hundred dollars.
They could amputate it, which would obviously solve the problem immediately. This would cost at least a thousand dollars.
I can't afford either of those.
The only other option is euthanasia, which is completely insane. Besides her leg, she's perfectly healthy.
So...what I'm asking, is if anyone out there could help me. I know this is asking for a lot from the denizens of the internet, but...I have nowhere to turn, and she is my only pet. I don't have the money to help her, and I don't want to lose her...
