Mommy Cat is a 14-year-old Short Hair Cat in Oakland , CA, who needs $1,800 for Diagnostic Assessments for Persistent Worsening Cough.

I am asking for funding bc Mommy Cat is my best friend in the world. She's my emotional support animal, who came to me 14 years ago as a stray rescue after my service dog of 15 years died of cancer. I had inadequate income, no outside resources, & a cold, uncaring vet, so I had to watch my beautiful service dog die. Mommy Cat needs urgent care immediately! She deserves the best quality of life!

Mommy Cat is 9.5 lbs. of fiercely independent feline w/a sweet disposition but the tenacity of a tiger-lion when defending her yard or making demands of me! Despite her disabilities she always wants me near her at home. She starred N the video CATZ! & she's the 1st cat U see. Look it up! It's essential. The colony grew to 31 cats that needed forever homes & Mommy Cat helped tremendously.

My heart & soul-Mommy Cat-has a nasty cough that's worsening & doesn't respond to medication. Despite having no teeth & a heart murmur, Mommy Cat's prognosis is good if she gets proper diagnostics from the veterinary hospital in San Ramon, CA.

We've got the best care ever and our veterinarian is the best! I gave up my disability check & stopped paying most bills to save my service dog, to no avail. Mommy Cat's prognosis is good. But I've almost stopped paying bills again & am in debt again trying to help her. Despite being unable to do what I did before, I refuse to watch Mommy Cat suffer or worse. Please help us!

Mommy Cat needs between 1845.62 – 2386.59 in diagnostic assessments. I'm terrified that her cough will worsen by not knowing what's causing it. I don't want her to get worse + I have to plan for afterward when the diagnostic assessment tells me what's wrong. Thank you!
