My cat needed emergency surgery on Friday (1-22-16). I had taken her in for what I thought was an exam, after I noticed a few things being “off” about her. When I came back to pick her up, my vet had sat me down – at this point I knew something was horribly wrong, and bad. Next thing I knew, she’s telling me surgery is the best thing for her and the sooner the better and everything was a panic-stricken, terrifying blur after that. The vet tech came back with a cost estimate: $1500-2000. It was as if someone kicked me in the chest, then put bricks on it.
Who has thousands of dollars just laying around? I’m already in a position where I’m reconsidering short term disability but now I definitely can’t. A second job is out of the question. I’m poor to begin with. My cat is my everything, my world, my reason for being here, so even though there was some thought process behind my decision, it was a no-brainer.
But I need help. And I’m probably going to be reblogging the hell out of this and potentially asking people to post on their page and please forgive me in advance but I don’t know what else to do.
If you donate even $1 and share this, and this post reaches 3000 people – a dollar per note – I will have reached my goal. It’s Tumblr; THAT IS SO EASY. And it’s just a dollar! And imagine if you can donate $5, or $10, or $20, or more.
Please help me reach my goal.
