Immediate help needed—we still need £900 to repay the surgery loan and fund Cassey’s follow-up care

Because the life-saving operation couldn’t wait, I took out an emergency loan, and Cassey was able to have her life-saving operation right away.

If you’re able to help—even £1 makes a difference—it would mean the world to us. Please go to: https://buymeacoffee.com/casseyfund

If you can’t donate, a quick share of this post is just as valuable.

Cassey's start in life was heartbreaking: once used as a breeding cat in a cat mill, she was abandoned and later lost an eye after a dog attack. Despite her troubled past, she's spent the last 10 years with me as the gentlest, most affectionate companion. She snuggles up under my arm every night and sits beside me at home or garden, with her soft purrs bringing comfort through every difficult moment.

She started vomiting over a year ago but it’s steadily increased in frequency, as other illnesses were ruled out with the local MediVet, frequency is now 1-3 times daily. Simultaneously, her weight has significantly dropped from 5.2kg Jan 2024 to 3.53kg on 24th Sept 2025.

It’s devastating to see her health decline and reminded when she looks at me with her tired trusting eyes, even as the vomiting worsens. Cassey isn't just a pet, she's family. Her affectionate gentle nature makes her a joy to be around and want to give her the care she desperately needs.

WHY CASSEY NEEDS HELP

Despite her hyperthyroidism, Cassey still purrs, seeks affection and shows every sign of wanting to keep going. The vets believe this operation gives her a real chance at a healthy and comfortable life.

I’ve already spent £706 on diagnostic tests, (X-Rays, Ultrasound and Blood Tests).

The surgery is £4,500. Cassey’s pet insurance covers 80%, but I must raise around £900 to pay the remaining share plus follow-up care.

Cost Breakdown
-Total surgery cost: £4,500
-Insurance covers 80%
-Remaining 20% to pay: £900

Thankfully, my insurance will cover most of the cost of the procedure, but I urgently need £900 to pay the remaining share.
