I need your help....

I m embarrassed to ask but I recently lost my job and I have a very sick kitty right now. I m looking for a part-time job but as the sole caretaker of my father who has Parkinson's finding one with suitable hours is difficult.

My cat, Fox Mulder, is fourteen and has a very bad eye and tooth infection. He is in a lot of pain and can only drink a little broth and thankfully, water at the moment... but he tries. I've called around to several vets, but they will not arrange a payment plan and funds are very limited at the moment.

I would never ask for this help for me, but it's very hard to see him suffer. I lost my other cat to a stroke two months ago and it's difficult to see Fox hurting.

I don't need much... I asked for my friend a few months go and many of you were kind enough to help and we were very grateful for your kindness.

For anyone interested this is the GoFundMe account. gofundme.com/z8v5ndb3

I will provide vet receipts if requested.

Thank you....

That helps so much.

I've never been in the position that I can't take care of my pets and it's very hard.
