Mika is a 3 year old Mix-Breed in Taunton, MA, who needs $7,000 for CT Scan and Rhinoscope Under General Anesthesia.

Mika is a 3 year old domestic shorthair tabby. Since April she has had severe upper respiratory congestion. Nasal constriction has produced a loud wheezing coming from her head. It is hard for her to breathe. I’ve brought her to the Vet four times for treatment and all have told me she needs a CT Scan and rhinoscope. The diagnostic testing costs up to $7000.00. Any surgery required will be more.

I am seeking financial help to be able to diagnose and treat my beloved cat Mika. We share a very close bond. I’ve spent all of my savings on her veterinary care . I am frightened with her struggling to breathe. She isn’t just a cat, she’s my fur baby. The VCA SOUTHSHORE WEYMOUTH ANIMAL HOSPITAL quoted me with the cost of the testing.

Mika is my “ nurse kitty”. Everytime she sees me lying in bed she paws my back to tell me to lie on my back. Then she crawls on top of me and lays across my chest and purrs. I believe she thinks her laying on me and purring heals me. She is such a comfort to me. She can always tell if I’m not feeling well or am feeling blue. Her love always makes me feel better.

I am a senior citizen on Social Security that is also disabled on a fixed income.I live with my son who also struggles with a disability. Mika is like another child to me. She is a friend to my son. She is a great comfort to us and we want her to have a long and happy life.
