My 4 month old exotic shorthair Archibald came down with panleukopenia, a very aggressive disease that attacks his white blood cells. Thanks to a new treatment, Archie is showing signs of recovery. He has a long way to go, and needs your help! The miracle cure that is saving Archie's life costs $2,000 a day, and our insurance coverage maxed out at $5,000. We have already  racked up $7000, and our savings are quickly dwindling. Archie's vets (who wear an ebola suit to treat him) say he's improving but needs at least 3-4 days of this critical care.

We started an Indiegogo account for Archie's treatment... Please follow this link and share with your friends:

Anything you can give is greatly appreciated. If we run over our need, we will donate the proceeds to an animal hospital. Thank you so much for your support!

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.

Note: this reminder is posted in all threads asking for donations and is not directed at any specific person.
