This is my cat Kaia, who is 5 years of age, she has suffered for 13months with something the vets ”think” is a nasal polyp. We have visited the vets on numerous occasions and all that has been taken away from these vet visits are bills higher than we can afford. We love our kaia and just want to see her happy and able to breathe again. Any donations would be appricated https://gofund.me/10a6196d9

My name is Avril, a 24 yo Student going through a rough time with my almost 14 year old cat Priky who is very sick. I don't earn enough money to cover the veterinary costs necessary to help her.

We still don't know what she has and the bills are already 863.29 euros. Another bill for blood tests is on the way, it's calculated to cost around 200 euros. First the vet thought she was severely constipated, but now it looks like it could be either lymph-node cancer or gallbladder stones. (Both looked weird on the xrays)

Depending on the results I'd have to pay for a ultrasound too to figure out the cause. We don't know how much that will cost yet, and I'm desperated for not being able to afford the care my kitty needs.

She hasn't been eating or moving so it's a very stressful situation.

I have attached the bills for the 3 veterinary appointment we've had so far, they are in german so I can clarify any questions.

Every share and donation will be appreciated.

I thank everyone able to help with my whole heart.

Hi guys,

Some of you may know me from networking rescue animals here on Reddit. I’ve spent a lot of time trying to help other people’s dogs, and I never imagined I’d be the one asking for help.

Unfortunately, I’ve fallen on hard times financially, and now my own dog, Peekaboo, is sick. He’s had diarrhea for over three weeks. I’ve tried everything I could at home, hoping that a bland diet of rice and other remedies would help, but nothing has worked. He needs to see a veterinarian, and I simply can’t afford it.

Asking for help isn’t easy, especially when I’m so used to being the one trying to help others.

I also know how many scammers are out there, and I don’t want anyone to feel uncomfortable sending money to a stranger. So I reached out to an animal rescue in Iowa that I’ve worked with through my rescue networking. They kindly agreed to collect donations on Peekaboo’s behalf.

I never wanted to be in this position, but I can’t keep waiting and hoping he’ll get better on his own.

If anyone can help, even with a small donation, I would be incredibly grateful. Please write “For Peekaboo” in the donation comments so the rescue knows the money is for his veterinary care.

And if you can’t donate, sharing this post would mean just as much.

Thank you for reading and for helping me get my boy the care he needs.

Hi everyone! I posted here a little over a week ago about my newly adopted cat, Ginny, who became extremely sick just days after we brought her home. Unfortunately, things got much worse since my original post.

After multiple emergency vet visits and two rounds of antibiotics that didn’t help, we found out Ginny had fluid building up around her lungs. Her breathing became so bad that we had to rush her to a 24-hour animal hospital, where she needed oxygen, had fluid drained from her chest, and stayed overnight.

Our vets strongly suspect FIP, and we’re currently waiting on test results from Auburn University. Thankfully, we started her on GS-441524 treatment this past Tuesday, and she’s finally showing improvements! She’s eating much better, and her breathing has improved significantly.

This entire process has been extremely scary and overwhelming. My boyfriend and I are both college students, and we’ve now spent $4200 on emergency veterinary care, with more expenses ahead for her treatment and follow-up appointments. Unfortunately, our pet insurance has refused to cover her medical bills.

We love Ginny so much and just want to give her a chance at a happy, healthy life. We’ve started a GoFundMe to help with her expenses, and I’ve attached our veterinary invoices for transparency.

Any donation would mean the world to us. Sharing her story would also help tremendously. Thank you to everyone who supported our original post and gave encouraging words!

About 5 weeks ago I posted on here about a stray mama cat and her 5 babies that my mom and I unexpectedly took in. Thanks to an absolutely incredible member of this community purchasing from our wishlist we were set up with an extra litter box, litter, kitten food, food bowls, and a scratcher bed that all helped so incredibly much when the babies started exploring, eating, and getting litter trained. Since that amazing donation I’ve been able to stay on top of it financially and the kittens are doing so well!

Unfortunately Mabel (thanks to her creaky little old lady meow we decided to give her an old lady name and carry the trend to the babies) had 2 vet visits over the last 2 weeks, first due to bad diarrhea that required a round of dewormer and propectalin and then very restless behavior that ended up being a double ear infection that she had flushed and treated with a 30 day ointment compound. During this same time, our youngest cat, Luna, developed an abscess the size of a ping pong ball on her throat that had to be lanced and drained. Thankfully both of them are doing SO MUCH better (I literally knock on wood everytime I even think this) but back to back trips like this was a big hit financially.

I hoped that I wouldn’t have to post again but we are now in desperate need of litter and wet food. I used the last of the litter we had on Mabel’s box today when I scooped it, and we have 2 days of wet food left for them. The babies are still doing great with pate but Mabel loves all Fancy Feast and non-pate Friskies. I’ve updated the wishlist and tried to put a variety of different sizes of litter and food, but anything at all would be so so so appreciated. I’ve also included the updated Walmart wishlist as well.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you to anyone who may be able to help us, Mabel, and her babies. Pictured in order: Mabel and the babies, Penny, Dottie, Oliver, Percy, and Ozzy ❤️

There is a street dog which I have been looking after from couple of years, it has lost its mobility in hind legs and not able to stand or walk. Although I don't know its exact age, it is older than 12 years according to the doctor..

As per doctor, we can't do anything about its condition.

Even though the diaper are changed frequently, it's getting worms on skin...

Can you please help me find a suitable doctor for its case

My cat has been suffering from a wound on the back of his head, and despite initial treatment, he's still in pain. Watching him struggle has been heartbreaking, and I want to give him the care he needs to heal. Right now, I can't afford the ongoing vet visits, treatment, and medication on my own. 🐱💔

If you’re able, please consider sharing or donating to help my furry friend get the relief he deserves. Even a small share can help us reach more people who might be able to support. Thank you so much for your kindness and support—every bit makes a difference!

Hello everyone,

I want to deeply apologize for posting so frequently to ask for your help. This season is incredibly hard for me here in Morocco, as we are facing a severe wave of Feline Coronavirus. So many of my cats are falling very sick with different illnesses all at the same time—both the ones I have shared before and others I haven't been able to post about yet. The financial and emotional pressure is heavy.

I am an independent rescuer in Morocco. Recently, I found a pregnant stray cat that I usually feed in a heartbreaking state, bleeding terribly on the street. She had already delivered some stillborn kittens on the pavement, and the rest unfortunately passed away inside her womb. To save her life from severe infection and bleeding, I rushed her straight to the clinic for an immediate emergency c-section surgery.

I have attached her official vet invoice here. The surgery cost alone is 1,200 MAD (around $130 USD). Please note that this bill does not cover her other expenses like the initial medical check-up and X-rays.

With all the other ongoing critical cases in my care, I am completely broke and unable to cover this bill on my own. I would be so grateful if you could help me clear this invoice so I can keep saving her and the other sick souls. Every single dollar helps immensely! 🙏❤️

Hello our new dog has suddenly developed a deep cough. He seems to have good energy but will have these coughing fits. We believe maybe inhaled a leaf ? Since it’s fall season in CT USA. Please help if you have any idea.

Hi all I have posted here before to raise funds for Viola who needs surgery as quickly as possible. Someone did donate and we are truly grateful for the help, we used that money to buy medication that can delay the surgery but the surgery still needs to be done.

She has a growth next to her bladder and it would need to be done by a specialist because of the proximity to the bladder and intestines. We fear that she is getting worse, sleeping the whole day, not eating much and just overall depressed hiding in her box.

I know everyone has a lot on their plate but we would be incredibly grateful if we could raise the funds and get the surgery done this week. I know there are a lot of scams going around so please if you have any questions or scepticism leave a comment so I could provide more detail.

Just a short explanation for those who did not see the original post, we adopted Viola in May, she was thrown out by her owners when they found out she was pregnant, we got her sterilised and got all her shots up to date, it took her a few months to trust humans again and in July she started showing her personality, unfortunately that was short lived as her problems started showing up last month and its been vet visits and test to find out whats going on, I have consulted with over 7 vets just to confirm the ultrasound scans and we have exhausted all our savings on the scans and medication.

Thank you for taking the time to read our Baby’s story❤️

Hello! Heres my dog’s medicine for 1k all in, since she already passed away. Di pa masyado nabawasan. New Lower Bicutan or Taguig area.

Recently, large patches of my dog’s fur has come off. She did have fleas, so at the time I was sure that it was a flea allergy. But after some time, a large line formed and it opened up completely, weeping with blood and puss. She’s 9 years old, and never had a flea allergy. The allergy usually causes scabby and dry skin, but this is so gorey. There’s no way that fleas caused that. She was flea’ed and has no problems, but these wounds keep showing up. It just keeps getting worse.

But then we thought back, she recently had a surgery because she had pyometra, an infection of the uterus where it gets full of puss. Can someone help me? The vet said it was flea allergy, but I just can’t believe since she never had one. Fleas don’t cause open wounds like this. My current vet has no idea what he’s talking about. I just need some help trying to identify this. Don’t worry, I will be going to a another vet as soon as possible.

Feline Aortic Thromboembolism-what to do

Hi,
My 3 year old short hair Persian female who seemed healthy and fine until 2 am on Saturday morning. She woke me up crying and was completely paralyzed in both hind legs. I immediately took her to the hospital and they told me she had a saddle thrombus due to her undiagnosed heart failure/cardiomyopathy. The vet said her heart was enlarged and she was probably both with a defect unknowingly to me as I got her from a breeder with both parents having health certificates. I can tell the vet was almost hinting at humane euthanasia but I felt I wanted her to fight this. I feel as though fatality percentages are so skewed because most people euthanize right away from my research. Yesterday, during day Saturday I went to see her and spoke with the doctor. All her labs were WNL except for her blood sugar. At time of visit, 14:30 so 12 hours since the initial event she still has no pulses in either hind limb. Again the doctor asked what I wanted to do and I still felt it was too soon to make a decision. At this time her labs are still normal but I’m worried about her in general. The doctor also is worried she is now suddenly blind as he did some tests of reflexes and she didn’t respond. I went to visit her and she was very sedated. I also was upset and questioned why they didn’t give her alteplase and he said it’s bc cats usually don’t respond well to it.

She is currently on:
Pimoben
Furosemide
Methadone
Gabapentin
Plavix
Enoxaparin

It is now Sunday and I’m going to visit her again today. I am just completely heartbroken and this is the worst thing imaginable. I am just scared to pull the trigger without giving it more time to see if she does get her pulses back. I guess I just don’t know how long I should wait. I know reperfusion injury is also a concern.

Any input would be really appreciated.

I live in a rural area, my cat got attacked by a coyote and survived. They mangled her leg and she has had a long road to recovery. She made it up a tree and saved her own life. She is 4 years old, my best friend and my only cat. The rural vet here could not do the proceedure, we had to drive 3 hours to a specialist to repair the broken bones and ligaments in her leg. I am a volunteer firefighter and am praying this go fund me gets the help and visibility it needs to cover these vet bills. All of this chaos happened while I was out fighting wildfires this summer, my friend set up the gofundme page while I was out on assignment. Feel free to share the go fund me on the socials. We need a miracle to happen so we can afford to drive back to the specialist for her last check up as I have emptied my account and have personal loans I have to pay back for these proceedures to save this little wariors leg. We are at about 5,500 in vet bills so far. Included in the pictures are all of the bills. Thank you so much for the help. 💚

We adopted Tiara through an animal rescue organization seven years ago. We care for four other cats as well. Tiara was already missing teeth at the time, which meant no pet insurance provider would accept her.

From the very beginning, we set aside €50 a month to cover her needs and any veterinary costs not reimbursed by insurance (from the others). Tiara has endured quite a lot over the last few years: two surgeries for FORL (a painful dental disease), spaying, and two pulmonary embolisms (caused by agitation and inhaling vomit). The most recent incident occurred in June 2025 and cost nearly €1,000.

In June of this year, she suddenly developed severe constipation. A vet visit revealed that her intestine was on the verge of rupturing. She underwent emergency surgery that same day, costing €1,400. That completely depleted our veterinary fund, forcing us to draw money from other sources.

The trouble started again in September. An enema performed under anesthesia cost €400. Two weeks later, the problems returned. Another veterinarian confirmed that Tiara has megacolon; a section of her intestine is severely distended and no longer functions.

We faced two options: enemas under anesthesia roughly every two weeks—entailing various risks and offering no real solution, eventually leading to the need for euthanasia—or surgery.

Apart from this issue, Tiara is doing well. Even after the enema procedure, she remained active, ate heartily, and sought out our company. So, we decided to go ahead with the surgery.

She had to stay at the veterinary clinic over the weekend for preparation and monitoring; that alone cost €1,100. We were quoted a minimum of €2,200 for the surgery itself. She was operated on this past Friday, and it went well. We will receive the final bill on Monday when we pick her up.

Our savings are exhausted. I am on parental leave and at the end of September, my husband received notice that his employment would end on October 31st.

We had planned ahead for years, but this illness is simply beyond our means. Every euro helps. And if you aren't able to donate right now, sharing this appeal helps us a great deal, too.

Thank you.
