Pepper is my senior cat of thirteen years. On 23 August we rushed to Madrid Veterinary Centre with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends an operation to remove the blockage, and the estimate came to $1,700. They have stabilized Pepper, but the treatment can't wait beyond November. Pepper is more than a pet - Pepper got me through my hardest year. I have already put $85 toward the bills and asked for a payment plan. Whatever I can't raise, I'll repay to anyone who needs it back. If more is raised than needed, the surplus goes to Madrid Veterinary Centre's charity fund for other animals. Where the $1,700 goes: • Emergency surgery: $1,200 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $185 • Medication and follow-up visits: $210 • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $105 Thanks for reading all this.
