Pepper is my cat of thirteen years. On 22 February we rushed to the Pietermaritzburg Emergency Vet Clinic with a foreign object blocking the intestines. The vet recommends orthopedic surgery, and the estimate came to $250. They have stabilized Pepper, but the treatment can't wait beyond May. Pepper is more than a pet - Pepper is the reason I get out of bed. I have already put $80 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 the Pietermaritzburg Emergency Vet Clinic and I'll share the invoice and an update on Pepper's recovery. Where the $250 goes: • Diagnostics (X-ray, bloodwork): $35 • Hospitalization (2 nights): $140 • Medication and follow-up visits: $75 Thanks for being kind about this.
