Petey is a 3-year-old Domestic Shorthair in Port Richey, FL, who needs $2000 for diagnostics and treatment.

Petey is a loving cat. He is very social. Loves to interact. He is a ginger cat which seems to make him more special. Fun to have around. He finds happiness just being around my daughter and I. He head bumps and rubs my head. Puts his paws on my shoulders and rubs against my face and purrs. Very special.

Pete is the most curious cat but gentle and kind. He enjoys playing with us and our other cats. He lays with other house cats and grooms them. Seems to enjoy being the leader of the pact but never aggressive. Sweet disposition and wants to be petted and given attention. We love him and find him to be easy to live with.

Pete loves to investigate and pokes around in shopping bags. He always makes me smile. Runs into my bedroom and never wants to leave. Have to bribe him to come back out as he wants to stay on my bed. Always laugh because he tries so hard to stay. If cooking wants to be there with me to watch what I'm doing and investigate. He'll come to rub up on me at this time also.

Pete hasn't gone to the vet yet as we don't have the funds. He has been neutered. I am hopeful someone can help. Being a male cat I think he is having urinary issues which is common. Right now I cannot afford any vet bills. I would have to bring him to VCA of Bayonet Point in Hudson Florida as our other cats have gone there.

My daughter is disabled and does not receive financial support. I am 67 looking to retire and already have limited income and will have less when I retire in January 2022.
