Pet's info: Small Animal | Unknown - Small Animal | Female
My mouse keeps squeaking because she has an injury on her ear and she seems to keep scratching it making it worse and I really can’t afford veterinary care right now but It hurts to see the poor little guy in pain and I put bacitracin on the wound so she would settle for a little while but then she’d start to scratch again and squeak. Also I’m sorry if this was all over the place I’m tried and my grammar and punctuation starts to fade, thank you if you can help!

Poor little Merial Leahy! It would be best for her to see a vet for this problem, and I would see if you can borrow money from family and friends to afford a vet. I can also give you some resources that may help. You can see if your vet accepts payment plans, if there is a low cost clinic in your area, or you can apply for Care Credit online. There is also an organization called Red Rover that give grants for treatment of sick animals, and you can see if you qualify for one of their grants. Best Friends also has a list of resources that offer financial assistance on their website. http://www.humanesociety.org/animals/resources/tips/trouble_affording_pet.html?credit=web_id91754962 https://www.redrover.org https://www.carecredit.com http://bestfriends.org/resources/financial-aid-pets http://lessonsfromaparalyzeddog.com/when-pet-owners-cant-afford-veterinary-bills/ http://www.dogheirs.com/resources-affordable-veterinary-care/ I hope one of these resources helps you!
