We adopted a stray cat without knowing she was pregnant. She gave birth to 5 beautiful kitties and we've had Vex since. He's now 6 years old. He's always been a happy cat, meowing and exploring his environment. He was raised with 4 brothers and sisters, two of whom have passed away with what we now suspect was FIP. We own two beautiful cats, who are our world. A few weeks ago, we noticed our furbaby Vex wasn't eating and he looked skinnier than usual. He was sneezing and sleeping a lot. We took him to the vet and had his bloodwork done. He loves getting head scritches and butts his head against everyone's legs, stranger or not! His signature move is flopping down on his side and meowing that he's content. Currently, he sleeps all day and he is still not accepting food. His belly pouch has pretty much disappeared! We are extremely worried about him. He’s more than just a cat – he’s family. We’re not ready to say goodbye just yet, and with your help, we could save him. Our vet at Sun City Animal Hospital in Las Vegas, NV suspects he has Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP). We've started him on treatment but it's very expensive. We still need help paying for his periodic bloodwork, which is $171 each time, and we still have two more rounds to make sure he's cured from FIP. I recently lost my part-time job and my rent is incredibly high - we appreciate everyone's help. Vex is part of our family and we're so grateful to have more time with him. We are so thankful to all our supporters!
