Annabelle is a 11-year-old Shorthair Cat in Woodbridge , VA, who needs $578 for Pyometra Surgery.

We bought Annabelle 11 years ago right after we moved in to our first home together. She is our first pet as a family. We currently have a dog named Reese as well who is still a puppy. We got him after we tragically lost our first dog Maddie to cancer a little over a year ago. The kids were devastated by the loss of our furry family member!

We have 8 kids who all love Annabelle dearly. She is older than 6 of them and has always been a fixture in their lives and the older two boys were 2 and 1 when we got her so they do not remember life without her. She is a wonderful cat!! We all consider her a wonderful pet and a member of the family!

Annabelle is fantastic with our kids and extremely loving to myself and my husband!! She loves to sit with us in bed and watch tv while I scratch her ears as long as possible!! She drools like a St. Bernard but we don’t mind a bit! She used to do backflips around the house but now that she is older she just loves to be loved!

Annabelle has never had any problems at all until now. A few days ago her stomach blew up like a balloon and her de minor changed completely. She just spent a day and a half on my side of the room howling for help in pain. I called the vet yesterday and they told me that it would be around $366 dollars but now they are saying $628.

I am a stay at home mom of 8 kids ages 12 and under and my husband is disabled due to his previous profession of working on cars. We scrape to get by on a daily basis.
