About this campaign

My Wife and I wanted to get a kitten. When we went to pick up Tia, she was 1 of 2 of the last of the liter. We decided that they needed to stay together so we brought her sister Tamara home as well. A great decision. They have become the rulers of the house since their arrival. We are saddened to know about Tia's heath issues.

Tai and her sister Tamara are always with us when we are home. They sleep with us and are more spoiled and pampered than I am. Tia seems to be the Alpha in the family. She goes where she wants with the freedom that she knows she has. She loves sitting by the open window and get fresh air and listening to the sounds outside.

We are on a fixed income and with Covid, we are unable to meet the financial requirements your her treatment.
We were taken back when we were given the total cost of all of the test, treatments and medications that would be needed. We need help to Tia recover.

Tia wasn't herself, and we took her to the vet. Dr. Segaloff at VCA South Shore Animal Hospital diagnosed Tia with Oral Fibrosarcoma (Low Grade) followed by Electrochemotherapy They want to do marginal removal and then directed radiation. She will also need a chest x-ray and blood work prior to any surgery. They want to make sure it is not in her lungs.

When Tia comes up to you and rubs up against you with a loud purr, you know she is satisfied with her life. That's why we love having pets in the house. She will take an empty toilet paper roll and play with it for hours. She will take it around the house like a newly caught mouse. She loves sleeping at the bottom of my legs at night.
