As those of you here may know, I struggle with financial stuff and already have to kitties of my own, Atsuko and Saru who is now about 6 or 7 months. These two are basically my ESAs. For those who do not know what that means, they are Emotional Support Animals.
But recently a woman handed me a kitty who she said she thought may be lost. I did notice myself that the girl seemed particularly skinny. Not over the top but where you could tell she was a bit thin. In fact, shes so small and so thin I assumed at first glance that shes a kitten!
Shes such a sweet, loving little girl and I feel bad every time I have to push her away so I can exit the room I have her in since shes in constant demand of attention, but of course I don't know if shes sick or not, so I can't just let my kitties near her!
The full story to this is on the link here.
Regardless, I don't have the money for her right now but also don't wanna just dump her off at a shelter or a foster family where she has no real chance of at least finding her original family first! I'm sure many of us, if not all of us would be distraught if we lost our kitty and someone else adopted them before we could get them back...
I wanna give her that chance but with the way my folks are, unless they know shes not sick and that I can actually afford to look after her they aren't gonna let me keep her here.
I would love if she got a nice home once I had time to actually look for her family and I have no clue if her foster folks would even TRY to look. They could tell me one thing and do another, or she could just end up stuck in the system until shes put down.
I'm guessing the ladder is what would happen since she seems to have Hip Dysplacia from what I can tell. I know most people adopting a kitty won't wanna adopt one they know is gonna cost them extra for medication... they'd want one healthy so they have less financial stuff to worry about.
So if you can spare anything to help out, it would be great. I need the money to get her looked at and make sure shes not sick, as well as look into her hip issues and for food and litter for the extra cat. This is something I feel I need to do but I can't without help.
I'd be devastated if it were me in this situation and one of my furbabies. So I wanna give Yukiko and her pet parents a fighting chance before I look into helping her get adopted by anyone and put into the fostering system or a shelter. So please... if you can... it would be great if you'd give a little to help me give her a fighting chance at getting home.
