Kiki is a 9-year-old cat in Cartersville, GA, who needs $3,490 for OP-Enucleation.

Currently, Kiki lives a happy life with me and her dad, Chris. She wakes me up around the same time every morning for cuddles. I adopted her when she was a kitten along with a couple pups. I didn't know that my now ex-husband abused animals when we married; she was the only one I could save from him. When necessary, I would get my mom or friends to watch her while I got settled into a new place.

She follows me everywhere I go and steals my seat when I walk away... even if only for 2 seconds... I'm sure she's just keeping it warm for me. ;) She loves my fiancé Chris, probably more than she loves her momma (me), which I didn't think was possible and I love it. We're very blessed to have each other and I want as much time on this earth with her that I can get.

I was diagnosed with lupus in Nov 2019 (same month she developed eye issues). The lupus thickened my blood; I was hospitalized (blood clots formed in both lungs, $$$). Due to COVID-19 I am unable to work at my 8+ year job b/c I am now high risk. My medicine alone = $500 mth.

Kiki went to the vet in Nov 19' because how an eye irritant. Her third eye lid started growing over her pupil. She's always been healthy but had eye allergies since she was a baby. We found out that she has a cancerous mass in her eye that needs to be removed *quickly* before it metastasizes and spreads to the rest of her body. She had her eye biopsied a couple months back and has had chest X-ray.

This cat is my heart and I'm trying everything I can to save her. One of my favorite things that she does is she stands on her hind legs and reaches her arms to the ceiling so that you’ll pick her up. She likes to perch on shoulders and survey (her) terrain. She also growls when someone knocks on our door. I’m pretty sure she thinks she’s a small child or a big. And she’s perfect. ;)
