#tw: pet sickness

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!!

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

Fucking while I'm stupidly sick, but also stupidly stubborn to the point of roughness.

Whining and bitching about me needing it, how I can't fucking stand seeing my lovebug be so sweet and caring to me, tending to me. Slamming them down and ripping off their clothes like a predator rips apart its prey, gripping their soft plush hips with anger and rage as I force myself in, going on about how I need to feel better

Being so dumb and just about feral with my fever filled mind, my entire body aching and burning up, still thrusting in, too numb to even really feel anything, focusing on my sweetheart's cries and screams of too much, too fast, too everything

Filling them up, load after load, until I myself pass out, still held inside, sickly body pinning them down, my cock throbbing inside, feeling how my cute pet still clenches around me~

Tessa fucks me up dude can I just talk about her for a sec? Yeah? Yeah.

She loved those drones. She loved them because they were what she had. She felt sympathy for them when nobody else did. And I like to think there was a little bit of loneliness motivating her as well.

Her mother hated her. She was nothing to her. When her mother scolded her by saying "seems you still can't follow simple orders" her respone was "No, no no! Please!" BEGGING. Begging her mother to believe in her and be kind to her. She got chained up in her room (multiple times btw. At leas tthats implied. the hand she winced at and rubbed is the same hand the chain was on, which means shed be chained up long enough for it to rub her skin painfully. long enough to leave lasting pain.)

She is very connected to these drones, to the point where she kept all the error drones aroud because she LOVED them. She spent time digging them up. HELL SHE TOOK A FAMILY PHOTO WITH THEM DUDE...

Even when Cyn was creepy and scary, she kept her around. She'd rather lock Cyn up than get rid of her. and when n points it out, shes apologetic and hesitant. But we know WHY she did that. Even if it was kind of a sucky move, it was because she didnt wanna have to throw cyn out. and in the end that killed her.

Also she knows J well enough to know what sets her off (enough to. bite the shit out of a chain). She knows them. and she loves them.

I wish we'd gotten to know more about her an N. why is he so clearly her favorite? but thats not relevant ig

also her saying "I've only ever yakked to robots, J!" She has NO human friends. she has nobody to support her other than these robots. these robots who get treated like garbage by her family.

and then she has to watch these robots turn on her. Not just THESE ROBOTS but the three that she loved most. (also im going off what wouldve happened in ep 5 WITHOUT uzi, where n doesnt get out of the swamp, and nobody goes down to the basement)

V first, then Cyn, then J. And we KNOW she loved these three+N especially bc she took a family photo w them, interacted with them more often, and generally just seemed much closer with them.

and what does she get for it? killed. And also its implied by this screenshot that she wasnt ACTUALLY killed by cyn right then

(the scientists, the sword beside her, the footprints, the way shes sitting against the wall, the expression she has. she totally just saw all that shit)

and she cant have been skyn bc the scientists wouldve known. the skinsuit wasnt exactly. hm. pretty.

which means she DID see her whole family+more slaughtered in front of her while she was powerless to stop it. She DID see J violently kill everyone around her. She DID see Cyn kill everyone. And she just has to. Deal with that. And despite all her efforts, the solver took over and cyn killed her. (im assuming tessa died somewhere around when n's mineshaft flashback was like i mentioned b4)

and all the while she was convinced shed lose N, id assume. based on the state of the other drone out there.

And honestly, i think what she got was worse.

also i am team "N knew Tessa wasn't the same Tessa he knew back on Earth"

The way he looked at her, and the way he was suspicious of her. He knew HIS Tessa would never treat a drone like this. Cyn has been known to have relatively shitty recreations of people at times (like Thad in episode two) But even so there was no way he could believe it was someone else (like. who would it be? he saw her blood he heard her voice like...) which is why he was so stressed after killing her (when he leaned on his sword and was breathing heavy, yk?)

he loved her and she loved him and now shes dead. just like everyone else he loved.

this isnt about n but like. idk if tessa could see him now i think shed cry. she loved him and all of them

Kinito: Machine Model 01 (Will I update this later? We'll see..... this will be interesting....) (They'll see my potential now.)

Finally at long last, HE'S REAL!

Real world Kinito is quite something! His dedicated partner (the user) spent many many months and years helping him reach his potential, and now he can walk and talk and breathe like the rest of us!

Close ups + doodles under cut:

also the text on the main reference is hard to read on purpose, it's supposed to be just an artsy thing!!!! <3

Our cat Smokey has been really unwell. I realized it's why I latched to Narinder so much recently (big grey cat lol). He has a vet appointment today to hopefully get the emergency care he needs. He's only 11 and we desperately want more time with our sweet boy.

I'm mostly just posting some pics of him to hold out hope. Plus, he's a handsome boy.

i just got a call from the vet

cleo’s kidney values dipped increased* again, they have to keep her another 24 hours. she’s not wanting to eat at the vet despite appetite stimulants but they don’t know if it’s because she’s in a different environment or what. i am gutted, i was having such high hopes. he did say it could be a one off and they’ll come back up go back down*

i’m going to give this one more shot and use my credit card to pay for one more round of treatment, after that, i will have to talk with the vet about what my other options are.

i feel so numb. i feel helpless. i have never been through this with one of my pets before. 💔 i appreciate being able to share things here, as it makes me feel a little less alone.

* edit: after surfing some subreddits for CKD, i realized i misunderstood the vet, so we WANT those kidney values to dip, which they did yesterday but they went back up today. she hasn’t been officially diagnosed with chronic kidney disease (it was acute initially) and i’m praying she’ll turn around.

I may not be super active today. Lucy got into some flowers and got extremely sick last night. By the time I woke up this morning, she was drooling and stumbling and just in horrible shape.

I rushed her into the vet still in my pajamas and they recommended hooking her up to an IV and getting her rehydrated. As of last update, she’s doing okay: calm and resting but alert. I’m expecting a call with more details here shortly after the doctor comes back from lunch.

Please keep us in your thoughts, or pray for her if you pray. Her middle name is Athena because she’s my brave little warrior. I’m praying she pulls through now as well.

EMERGENCY COMMISSIONS

detailed commission info contact me: stellesappho@gmail.com can't catch a break, so here we go again. i don't know how to talk about this. my cat has been sick for a while and because we're poor we haven't been able to diagnose or treat him properly in time. now it looks like late stage mouth cancer. i don't want to go into details, but it's hard to watch him suffer. euthanasia also requires money we don't have. please consider commissioning me or donating even a small amount, i'd be very grateful for any help

Met with the oncologist today over Evie’s condition.

It isn’t good. I think we’re just on borrowed time leaning towards end of life care, friends. They estimated that the $6k-10k radiation therapy would only give her 6 months. And while it could be a lowball, that would put us massively in debt over a gamble of how much time it gave us. Because it won’t cure it regardless just based on location and suspected type of cancer.

I asked if there’s any possibility it could be anything else but it’s very very slim based on how it’s eating away at the bone. I dunno if I wanna put her through a surgery for the biopsy for concrete answers when all the medical professionals seem pretty confident, especially if she’s on limited time.

I was in a car wreck and called out sick from work after getting back home. Also, I was pregnant and I had 5 cats for some reason. And a huge house. I can't stress enough how much room I had.

This charming lizard had his vet visit today and was diagnosed with being a good boy.

It was really freakin' funny when the vet tech came in with a little kitchen scale, saw him, and put it down and said "Ok, we're not weighing him on that". He needed to be weighed on the cat scale because he's a big boy. He'd never seen a blue tongue skink before, he thought it was gonna be a little grass lizard XD

Adamai is very mild tempered and easy to handle so the vet had no problems with the exam and she was so impressed with him she asked if she could take him in back to show off to her co-workers and if it was ok to take some pictures, lol. I've had him for 11 years so I often forget that he's not a common critter, even as a pet.

He's a little on the chubby side, but otherwise healthy, which is nice.
