My name is Matthew and my cat London has been beside me for nearly 14 years since I was 9 years old. I adopted him shortly after my first puppy was killed by our psychotic old neighbor, and since then, he's been a significant part of my daily life, helping me cope with my mental illnesses such as Borderline Personality Disorser and Major Depressive Disorder, filling the emptiness I feel every day by his presence alone. To me, London is everything, and I am not ready to let him go despite his age because without him, I'll feel like I'll have nothing.

I'm ready to give all that I can in return for him always being there for me, but I need help. I'm currently a full-time college student with a lot of debt from student loans and credit card debt, a lot of which can be expected to continue rising in order to pay for London's medical treatment, a lot of which is still on the table to determine the best treatment plan while he is getting properly diagnosed and taken care of.

Including money, the biggest thing I'm also afraid I don't have is time. London has lost significant weight that's gotten more rapid due to inflammation in his stomach and intestines that makes it difficult to eat. He needs some form of immediate relief to, at the very least, delay more expensive treatment that may be needed.

As it stands, he is suspected to have Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) or GI Lymphoma, which would involve cancer. His vet believes it may be GI Lymphoma, and the only way to confirm it is with a biopsy with a cost estimate of about $2300.

That's not including additional treatment such as chemotherapy if London is confirmed to have cancer, but in the best-case scenario, it would be IBD, which treatment involves dietary changes and supplements to manage his condition. Either way, it can be expected that he'll continue to need treatment with money I dont have, but I need as much time as I can to make it happen for London.

I'm exhausting every resource I possibly can for London so he can live his remaining time in as little pain as possible, and I need your help. Anything contributes to making it happen for him. Thank you.
