Mimi is a 1.5 year old British Shorthair in Seattle, WA, who needs $2,000 for Hepatic Lipidosis Treatment/Feeding Tube.

I love animals so I've always done petsitting as a side job. Mimi's original owners had hired me to care for her the majority of last summer. I always thought she was so adorable and loving, I wish I owned her. Her owners let me know, given the amount they travel, they were giving her up. I swept in to get her. I currently live in an apartment but am about to (hopefully) get a house.

We believe that Mimi is suffering from hepatic lipodosis. She is currently being treated at BluePearl Pet Hospital in Kirkland. She is suffering from a lack of appetite (currently has a nasal-esophageal feeding tube), jaundice, nausea, and general lethargy. She had low platelet counts and has a high and abnormal levels of bilirubin.

She is definitely a little talker and loves to be the center of attention. Very cuddly, calm, and super affectionate. Even when I visit her in the ER, she tries to make her way over to me and it breaks my heart seeing her wobble and unable to move much. She is so easy going, even in the state she's in. I want to be able to move into our new home together.

I lived with a partner who threw away all of my belongings, toxic. He had Mimi starved. I left the house on my birthday with very little. Mimi is one of the only things I have left. It means the world to me to be able to move on with my life and triumph from all our trauma.
