Hi, my name is Lacey, and I am creating this GoFundMe on behalf of my neighbor, Theresa, and her senior cat, Julius.

Julius has recently started declining and showing clear signs of a possible metabolic issue. He is still eating, drinking, and using the litter box, but his weight loss and overall condition show that something serious may be going on internally.

Theresa spoke with Countryside Vet Clinic, and they explained that Julius urgently needs a full senior cat lab panel and exam to figure out what is happening.

The vet provided the following costs:

Total needed immediately: $500

This $500 will cover the full diagnostic workup needed to get answers and help the vet determine what Julius is suffering from.

Once his results come back, the vet said that additional treatments, medications, or imaging may be needed depending on what is found.

At this moment, we are only asking for help to cover the initial visit and labs so we can understand what Julius is facing. If more care is needed later, we will update the community openly and transparently.

Before turning to GoFundMe, we tried every option we could, including:

This campaign is our last option to ensure Julius gets the diagnostic testing he urgently needs.

Why This Matters ❤️

Julius is a sweet, gentle cat who has been by Theresa’s side for many years. He still has fight in him — he’s eating, drinking, and trying to keep going. We just need to understand what his little body is telling us, and this $500 vet visit is the only way to get the answers.

Every dollar will go directly to:

How You Can Help ❤️

Anything helps
