Emergency vet bill for Pepper in Erie
A senior cat named Pepper needs emergency surgery - a $2,600 bill the family cannot cover.
🇺🇸 Erie, Pennsylvania, United States598 views
Pepper is my senior cat of two years. On 24 August we rushed to Erie Veterinary Centre with severe tick fever. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $2,600.
They have stabilized Pepper, but the treatment can't wait beyond December.
Pepper is more than a pet - Pepper walks my kids to the bus stop every morning. I have already put $135 toward the bills and asked for a payment plan.
Whatever I can't raise, I'll repay to anyone who needs it back.
Funds will be paid straight to Erie Veterinary Centre and I'll share the invoice and an update on Pepper's recovery.
Where the $2,600 goes:
• Emergency surgery: $2,050
• Medication and follow-up visits: $175
• Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $375
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Sending love. Hope you get there. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Québec.
Take care, Lorenzo. We've got a rescue too so I know how much they mean. It's not much but it's yours. Take care
Thinking of you and your family. Hope the recovery goes smoothly. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Erie
