Hello!

My name is Bayo Pepper. I am a game developer from Philadelphia who also has two cats: Neil and Cassie! I’ve been a cat lover ever since I was a kid, and it brings me immense joy to watch over these two lovable goofballs.

Neil has especially been a bright spot for everyone he’s been in contact with. I’ve been in ownership of Neil for at least 4 years, and every year has been a blessing to be with him. Anyone who has met him will tell you Neil is just a big oaf who loves one thing: crunchy treats!

Unfortunately, just this week, Neil had begun to show signs of trouble. Neil had been vomiting for 3 days straight, and ever since Nov 11th, 2026, Neil had begun to stop eating food. I urgently brought him to the vet and got him examined with blood tests and x-rays. That visit alone ran our family over $700.

Neil’s x-rays didn’t show any signs of blockage. However, his blood tests showed he might have acute pancreatitis. This is not confirmed yet, but it is our leading theory.

I will be taking Neil to the vet for more treatment, and I know it will run me at least $500 confirmed if I need more extensive searches (I.e ultrasounds).

I am coming to GoFundMe to ask for help paying for these vet visits. Not only do I have Neil and his emergency visits to cover going forward; I will also have to pay for my new cat, Cassie, to have her appointments.

I feel so scared for the health of my cats and only want the best for them. If you could donate whatever possible to help support their treatment, I would be forever in your debt.
