Last week, my cat was tracked by something. He has wounds on both sides of his face. I took him to a 24 hour vet, after I returned from work. After meeting with the vet, I was told that the worst case scenario for his treatment would be a procedure that was over $2000. I was shocked. I told the staff that I couldn’t afford that until payday. I was presented with a denial of treatment form, and another form that offered a $103 antibiotic injection, in addition to the $75 exam fee. I paid for the injection and the exam fee, but left with my cat. I am cleaning his wounds each day, and keeping him inside for now. He will need it surgically drained soon. He will also need stitches. If I can fundraise the rest of the money by today, I can take him back to the 24 hour vet tonight and have them finish the process. If I can’t, he will need to wait until next week, but my work hours conflict with the local vet’s schedule. I will try to rush him to the local vet Monday, after work, just before they close their doors. I am hoping their fees will be less than the quote presented by the 24 hour vet, because I have not managed to raise enough for that, just yet.
I am SO GRATEFUL for the generous Lemmy donors that have reached out and donated to my cat so far. I can’t believe how many wonderful people have taken time out of their day, and money from their own budget (which is probably as stressed as my own), to donate towards my cat. Lemmy is truly a life saver. You all are amazing human beings!
If anyone would like to help, as well, please feel free to visit my link. I hate asking for financial help. In fact, this is the first time I have ever had something like this happen. I am embarrassed to be so financially stressed between paydays, but this month has been rough. My elderly relative suffered some type of minor stroke this month, too. The cat was actually his, but I have taken over in seeking medical help for him. We appreciate any, and all help! Thank you all so much!
I’m collecting $2,239 until 05/20/2024 for Blue’s Medical Treatment. Can you help? https://www.paypal.com/pools/c/93OoEyefdT

To all of Blue’s donors, thank you! Donations are still being sent to his fund by some of you, and I am so grateful! I don’t have money to repay you, but if any of you ever need a blood donation, or a bone marrow donation, please email me. Since I thanked all of Blue’s donors by email, they should be able to reach me. You are all wonderful people!
