trigger warning for cancer!!

just got off the phone with my dad and my corgi, macy, does have bladder cancer. the vets have been taking their time trying to figure out everything but they finally got back to my dad today to tell him the news. we have 3 options for treatment and none of them are cheap. i hate to do this but i’m in the process of moving 2 more hours away from my family and i want to help them out as much as i can while also not having to ask them for money.

i’m not asking for donations, i’m really not, i sell divination readings so if you’d like to help my parents, myself, and most importantly — macy, please consider buying a reading from me! i have p*yp*l, v*nmo, c*sh*pp, ko-fi, and z*lle ((message me for that))

i’m more than willing to offer multiple readings for a lower price, i’m just desperate to help my parents and my dog. we have 4 dogs in total so having to spend a lot on macy is going to cause issues for everyone in the house so please, please consider sharing this post so people can potentially buy a reading from me.

this is a post that no one ever wants to make but here are some silly pictures of macy begging for my siblings food!!

I’m gonna miss him so much

[sister-lucifer]

i need y’all to send me some good vibes

my older dog is going to the vet for breathing issues

i’m hoping she just has a respiratory infection or smth that’s being exacerbated by the summer heat but it was only a few months ago I had to put down a dog for the first time

thoughts and prayers or manifestations or whatever you believe in, anything helps

[sacrisaint]

If you pray can you please pray for my Django Mango man , he’s getting emergency surgery today.

He has an obstruction in his stomach :(

It’s costing us all our savings and even more with loans we can’t afford to pay back but need to take out anyways as we had no choice we need approx around 3and a half or more we’ve paid 2 off already

TW. pet sicknes

our 18-19 year old cat is struggling rn, im already preparing for the worst. We took her to the vet today, and its likely kidney issues since they are common to old cats and she's showing all signs. Im still not overwhelming sad yet, we kinda have been expecting that she would not last longuer, but to be so close to Megui's death... they really are dropping like flies the way i feared

We have to say goodbye to him today we can’t afford the 3-6K to keep him in the hospital 💔

tw: weight loss and healthier lifestyle journey and body dysmorphia issues rant ahead also a side of my cat being sick

i know being healthier is a whole journey and fuck it hurts because i was on a fucking plateau that i broke and then on the travel i couldn’t work out at all cause the travel agent fucked up and gave us the wrong room setting they were small and it was three of us in one with 2 suitcases per person and none of the hotels had gyms, i did walk around quite a bit and okay maybe not the best diet control at the start but fuck staring at the scale once i got back home???? The 5 kg gain is sending me into a spiral and i want to sob into my pillow and i did

It sucks because i worked so fucking hard and i know i should not critique myself or be horrible to me about this lapse but i just i can’t help but stare at my body and see everything is all wrong again and i want to stop this thought process because this is hurting me but i can’t stop it and i needed to vent and my bestie has been great telling me what i need to hear and realise but my mind is so shit to me

on top of that my cat is sick i left him at a pet sitter and he caught a bug and he needs a nebuliser and so many more meds its all making me cry and feel horrible for my baby, he’s been sick on and off and he’s just under 3 years old, they think he might have asthma and also they are testing him for fiv and just a month ago we thought he might be having fhs, i just hope this is an respiratory infection which clears and he foesnt have fiv or fhs

i feel guilty about the weight gain, guilty about leaving my lil baby cat and him falling sick, guilty about not eating right, guilty about not trying to do workouts in the small ass rooms

fucking hell i’m going to go cry again

[gaveyouigaveyoui]

my cat probably needs oral surgery and the vet is nervous about putting him under because of his heart so i’m a huge wreck:)

Pet update under the cut.

Soon the 4-trenchcoat-cats will drop to 2. We took Patches in because he hasn't been acting right, and they confirmed he's in kidney failure. I'm going to take him for fluids tomorrow to give him another few days. My dad has Parkinsons and his cognitive level is low, and we're wanting to give him a few days to come to terms with things. If I notice Patches is slipping at any point, I'll make the call sooner. I don't want him to suffer, but after losing Jack a month ago, I'm trying to be as smooth as I can. Even with Jack being essentially in a hospice type situation for so long, Dad still didn't understand at first. I hope things will be different this time.

It still sucks of course. Patches is our feral turned couch monster, and we've gotten him over so many hurdles over the years. He's so social and outgoing, and I'm going to miss him looking for me when I take the dog on walks. He's a good boy, and I wish being old was kinder on him. I'm going to snuggle him and give him whatever he wants between now and then. Then he'll get to go to the Rainbow Bridge with his feral friends and be free again💜

I’m listening to the soundtrack for Spiritfarer and I kinda want to cry, so I’m gonna tell this story. Spiritfarer came out in August of 2020 I believe, or at least that’s when I started to play it. Now the premise of Spiritfarer is that you’re a girl named Stella faring spirits into the afterlife by fulfilling their requests until they’re ready to go. Now some of my older followers may remember what happened in August of 2020. That was when we had to put our old lab, Gordy, down. I remember my mom waking me up and telling me that it was time. For the whole month of August, Gordy was sick, with what, we didn’t know. The vets did his blood work and everything, but we didn’t get any answers. We knew that Gordy was sick because he refused to eat his food which he would never do. I remember putting chicken broth into his water to encourage him to drink. And he was stable for awhile. He could still walk around the house. But on his last day, he couldn’t walk at all and that was how we knew. It felt horrible because because of covid, the vet would only allow three people to be in the room with him. My dad had to go to carry Gordy in, so my little sister and my oldest sister went with. I guess the story is some games you will start playing at the perfect time.

Seeing lots of videos showcasing extremely short-legged munchkin cats lately. Munchkin cats are a high risk breed that often ends up with severe pain due to their short legs, which also affect their spine, ribcage, and hips.

Even for munchkin cats, the ones I've been seeing have extremely short legs. Just be aware.

Django has been admitted to the vet

I don’t have money to help him right now so they are doing the bare minimum for what we could afford

He needs to get an xray and bloods

Which is like so much fucking money which I do not have neither of my parents have it

It’s all my fault that he got into the bin he’s hurting and suffering because of me

having to sit up with my mom because of my dog

[silkchifffon]

At the emergency vet with Josh he’s in heart failure I’m gonna lose it.

[moonlitlonging]

I found out yesterday my cat has a terminal illness. I’m devastated obviously. My mental health has been improving a lot lately but it’s still an uphill battle right now. So this is triggering so many awful emotional responses in me. And now I’m fixating on the fact that the only person to ask me how I’m doing today was someone I work remotely with. I mean maybe everyone thinks it would upset me. I’m usually pretty avoidant when people try to check in with me like that. Really not okay right now tho and I don’t know how to actually say it.

please help me pay my kitties emergency vet bill!

ive never done this before but one of my cats just had to get an extremely sudden emergency procedure and i don't know what to do, my vet and i have reached out to a couple incredible programs here to help with the bill but one is less than half and the other hasn't replied back yet, i've already declined the blood work (CA$356) to lower the bill at the risk of possible underlying liver and kidney issues not being found but its still a monumental amount for us right now. i just feel so helpless

we had enough to pay the minimum deposit to get the procedure started in time thankfully, but we were already scraping by as it is and now we're in desperate need of funds to eat/pay rent/pay off any remainder of the bill. i am disabled without aid and have been unable to work/haven't worked since 2015 but am on track to hopefully start working pt this fall. i live with my mom who has 3-4 jobs including one seasonal job which needless to say is stressful and wearing her down. we unfortunately are stuck in the most expensive place to live in canada with the inability to save up to flee so the cycle is never ending.

this is Teddy, my typically very silly vocal happy boy who's not quite 2 yet, my comfort king, my little muffin who acts like a weighted blanket for me at night and eases my anxiety, his favourite toy is his pink unicorn poof, he loves car rides and he can shake paw!

he got a sudden urinary blockage last night with no straight answer as to why and progressively got worse as the night went on, i didnt sleep at all, i was panicking and bawling, naturally, and raced to the vet to get in as soon as the door opened. i assumed it was a uti which wouldn't have been as costly, but it turned out to be much more severe and life threatening. i never expected my usually extremely healthy boy to suddenly be at risk of that and im still trying to just process whats been happening

he needed to be sedated and given a catheter and some medication, the total bill came to CA$985.62, of which we were barely able to pay 500 of, and one program was able to donate 300 leaving a total of CA$185.62 for the bill. this, of course, leaves us scrambling for food and rent as well

i know there are a lot of fundraisers out there needing donations right now, and i really hate letting myself be so open and raw like this but even a dollar would help tremendously and i would be forever grateful for any help whatsoever, even a rb to signal boost is greatly appreciated <3

TLDR; my cat had a sudden life threatening issue and now we can't pay the full vet bill or pay for food/rent
