I rescued a kitten on Friday from my garage roof. I took her to the vet to get her checked out because I'm an animal lover and I noticed her belly was swollen and her tail was a stump. She did have worms, and had to be given an enema because she was so compacted from the parasites. She was also given a dewormer and an application of Revolution. I have three other cats at home already, and I'm worried that she'll be put down because of her tail if I give her to a shelter. I started a fundraiser on Give Forward for donations, but I don't know how to reach out or even get anyone to look at it. She needs an x-ray done to see if her tail is from a genetic disorder. I've put the link down below. Please, take a look. I'm at my wits' end, and I really want to give her the care she deserves.

From the Mod Team Regarding Pleas for money:

Cats are a huge responsibility. Anyone who thinks otherwise, should not have one in their life. They are dependent on us for everything from providing a place to eat, to also providing vet care.

Anyone who has cats knows that they can and do get ill. Your best defense is to plan for that to happen before it does, and store monies away in preparation.

If you read about a plight of an animal on the internet and your heart is drawn to help. Check out the story thoroughly. Google the vet's name or call Directory Assistance in the city and be sure this is a legitimate claim.

Do not blindly send money into a paypal account no matter how heart-wrenching the story. Instead reach out to the member and ask for the vet's name and phone number, and arrange to send the money there for the specific needs of the cat in question.

If that information cannot be provided- you have your answer. Report the post to a moderator so that it can be removed for not being on the level.
