I need to come up with $400 of the $900 vet bill by tommorow to remove the dead kitties from my girl cat who go impregnated by our neighbors cat! If we do not come up with the money by tommorow morning we will have to put her down. She means everything to me but unfortunately am going through really rough times. Please someone help!

Can you explain a little better please?

You have a pregnant cat who is carrying dead kittens? What has a vet told you and what procedure do they need to do?

Yes. She needs to have a c-section to remove the dead kittens. I will try and attach a picture of the estimate I received today.

How do they know they are dead?

Your best bet is to call your local Humane Society. They offer low-cost spay and neuter, and can probably perform the surgery.

You can also call a local rescue organization and see if they will help. They work with local vets and may be able to arrange something to help you and your cat.

Oh, goodness. So she went into labor and has been unable to deliver. This is awful. I am so sorry. Is she at the vet now or at home? She is likely to go into septic shock without care.

I hope your friends will be generous. Please keep us updated on what happens.

No she is at the vet currently and said that they would keep her overnight and we would have until the morning to come up with half the bill so they could treat accordingly. They did an ultra sound and could tell that the babies were dead. I cannot believe how expensive it can be. Thank you so much for the support!

Have you anyone you can borrow from while you continue to raise money on Go Fund Me?

Vets are terribly expensive these days. I hate to see your cat put down over this. Would they accept even $200 to save her initially?

I don't really have any family other wise I would defiantly borrowing anything I can. I have posted everywhere I could possibly think of! The vet did not come off as very nice and unfortunately was the only vet in the area prepared to do the procedure if I come up with the money. They seemed pretty clear that they wanted half of it paid I was in there crying with my son and very upset and we just had to leave her there. Some generous lady just sent me $100! That is so amazing! I have $100 as well so I just need $200 more. I have faith it hopefully all work out. I am very grateful for everyone sharing.

I want to suggest that you go back into your Go Fund Me Page and update that your cat is at the vet with six dead kittens and is being held for x dollars and will be euthanized otherwise. Please state the name and location of the animal hospital so people have more specific information to work with. Then send the updated page again.

I am so incredibly sorry for the position you are in. We were in the exact same one yesterday morning so my heart crumbles for you. :( have you looked into carecredit.com? That is how we were able to cover the outrageous expense. It takes 10 minutes to apply and get approved and you can use it immediately. If you can't get approved, maybe a family member can. I will be saying prayers for you and your kitty tonight. I'm sorry I can't help with anything other than suggestions.

Hi there!

Can you please update us on the status of your cat? Hoping you have been able to save her. An update may also spur readers to contribute to your fund to pay the bill.

Thanks!
