Louie came into our lives by sheer chance. We had decided to consider adopting a cat, ideally black, from Petsmart. We scheduled an appointment and visited their options without really vibing with them. On our way out empty handed, someone came in with an orphaned kitten they found in hopes of surrendering. It was wet, shivering, and covered in fleas and ants. Petsmart said no, so we said yes. Up until recently, Louie was a cheap date. He sleeps too much just like most cats, but when he's awake, he wants to be involved. If not directly, then he's fine either by your side, or curiously watching from across the way. It's just the three of us here, but we love having company, so he'd typically saunter out and slowly approach company to say hello. He can read people amazingly well. He has a presence, if that makes sense. I know that sounds silly, but I'm not the first to think so. He can be rather regal, and suddenly switch gears to be whatever the mood calls for. He lifts my spirit and gives me a type of joy that adds more value to my life than any random consumerism based impulse buy I've ever made. He's one of a kind, and we make each other happy. I need to do all I can. Louie suddenly became paralyzed and lost all control of his hind legs and tail over the course of only three days. It went from a limp, to a frog jump, to dragging. His mobility has been severely compromised, and he can no longer use his litter box. He's become incontinent, and his bladder and bowels have to be expressed manually. The first vet said his time was up. The second said he has a chance We are under-employed and the industry is ethically bankrupt. We simply can't afford the tests he needs to get a handle on whether or not he has a chance. What would it mean to see him healthy again? Everything. Absolutely everything. He is loved beyond measure. We need help
