Save Pepper: Faith can't afford the emergency vet

Pepper, Faith's tabby kitten, needs urgent treatment for kidney failure costing $1,950.

Pepper is my tabby kitten of six years. On 21 September we rushed to the San Francisco Emergency Vet Clinic with kidney failure. The vet recommends emergency surgery, and the estimate came to $1,950. They have stabilized Pepper, but the treatment can't wait beyond December. Pepper is more than a pet - Pepper got me through my hardest year. 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. If more is raised than needed, the surplus goes to the San Francisco Emergency Vet Clinic's charity fund for other animals. Where the $1,950 goes: • Medication and follow-up visits: $135 • Hospitalization (3 nights): $370 • Emergency surgery: $1,445 Thanks for being kind about this. - Faith

Updates from Faith

  1. Thank you all. We're at 67% now ($1,304). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward medication and follow-up visits.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($675 in total) the plan for medication and follow-up visits is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. Thank you all. We're at 19% now ($361). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward hospitalization.
