Shakira
Shakira is a 16 year old American Shorthair in Bronx , NY, who needs $7,000 for Hospitalization for Diabetic Ketoacidosis.
Bronx, NY
Shakira is a former Bodega Cat. She used to work in the store where my partner Freddy(whom passed away in 2021) used to work. She has been living a happy life here in our home for 9 years after retirement form the bodega. Shakira suddenly started losing weight about 4 weeks ago. After a vet visit & blood work we found that Shakira is diabetic. We immediately began treatment. However, she has now reached a state of diabetic ketoacidosis & needs hospitalization immediately. Shakira is one of the sweetest kitties I've ever owned. She wants nothing but love, lots of pets, and plenty of food. She has 2 brothers that definitely annoy her but gets along with them. It has been a huge struggle recently for all bills due to my own health struggles in the last few years. The hospitalization cost is far outside my budget.

Suki
Suki is a 11-year-old Siamese Mix Cat in Bayside who needs $2,000 for Gene-Electrochemotherapy.
Bayside
I adopted Suki 11 years ago from KittyKind Shelter in NYC. Suki joined to other shelter cats as a kitten, and they all had developed feline Herpes. The disease caused Suki to get a corneal infection and we went to an ophthalmologist specialist who saved her eye and left a scar. She’s been loving and happy ever since until we received the devastating news that she has feline breast cancer. Suki is a Siamese mix and in her younger days she used steak things like jewelry, hairpins, and other shiny objects and hide them in a box. As she got older she would steal treats when we thought we weren’t looking. Suki is super smart and playful. She always knows when you need a friend and will snuggle up closely when someone needs a hug. She enjoys watching nature shows and getting brushed. Everything about Suki makes me smile. She is the sweetest friend anyone could ever have. She starts her day chasing my feet under the covers, and then will spend about an hour grooming herself as she prides herself on looking pretty. The cutest thing Suki does is after a long hard day of work, she’ll make her famous play time screech and carry a toy in her mouth so she can begin her playtime. Suki has been recently diagnosed with Mammary Adenocarcinoma. I had a radical mastectomy surgery done that I hoped would remove the cancer, but it unfortunately spread. She will now need chemo and ideally a clinical trial of immunotherapy to give her a chance of survival. These treatments are not cheap. She needs 4 treatments of Gene-Electrochemotherapy (4900 each treatment) and regular chemo. I am single pet parent and have suffered several personal losses during Covid which have left me struggling on a fixed budget. These treatments are not cheap, but it is important treatment leading to a cancer vaccine for both pets and people. Please be a hero for Suki.
