Please help caspurr

Hi there, I'm going to tell you a story about my cat (furbaby) who is Caspurr or as I call him Caspie and he is now 2 years old and 8 months. I used to volunteer in a animal sanctuary for 6 year's and one day I went in and I saw this tiny little 2 month old kitten covered in pee and poop and he smelt so bad. I asked what his story was and I was told he was swung around my his back legs and tail, It caused a broken pelvis, broken tail and he was unable to walk and was incontinent... So they were going to put him to sleep at 2 months old not giving him a chance... No nothing!!!! So I took him home to foster him in the hope that he wold walk again.. It was really hard work as he was stubborn (still is!) I bathed him, I feed him every few hours as he was skin and bone, I constantly cleaned him, I medicated him with a drug called metacalm which was given by the vet and he is still on his to this day, I worked tiredlessly excerising his back legs to get them to work.. It was the hardest thing I have ever seen or had to do. He so badly wanted to play with the other cats but couldn't. so he spent atleast 4 months in a crate unable to walk. Then one day when he was 6 months old after his bath and excerise's I got a gut feeling to put him in a harness and try get him to walk with my assistance to a bowl of food and my god I have never been so proud in my life when he took his first steps with me holding a harness. It was the best day for me and for him because he final found his sense of freedom and life. From there he just grew from strength to strength. He still needed medication and you could see in his eye's he was in alot of pain.. So this year he went for a check up with the sanctuary and I knew something still wasn't right with him as he was always in pain.. They told me it was his "knee's" which I didn't believe was true. So about 3 weeks ago I noticed if it was cold he would tuck himself under blankets or huddle into a ball in front of the fire.. I knew something was wrong. So I decided to take him to a vet near where I live that had really good recommendation's . It was the most heartbreaking day ever. After a thorough examination and seeing my baby in so much pain I was told he possibly still has a healed broken pelvis, a dislocated right hip and a broken tail that is going up to his spine and he has arthritis . He is 2 years old and 4 months!!!! They have a X-ray done, He will then be sent to a orthapedic specialist for surgery, The vet thinks it will improve his life drasticly. I can't bare to even understand the amount of pain my boy must be in and it breaks my heart to know I can't afford it. I will be getting the X-ray after christmas which will cost 60 euro. His medication costs 15 euro for a 15ml bottle every month as I have been told to give him it every day and each dose is 4.5 kg, he is also on elite forte flex 2ml everyday whick costs 13 euro plus he has to have that in a treat as we can't give it in his food and for his treats it cost €1.59 per pack and its 5 sachets per pack so he needs .2 packs per week. If he doesn't see this specialist in a year he will be on more medication for the pain and eventually he will have to be put to sleep as the pain will become to much if his kidney's don't fail first. Each vet consultation is 30 euro.. this is alot of money that I struggle to have. I knew when I fully adopted him that he had problem's and that he would need to see a vet regulary and need medication but I was told when I signed his papers that he was ok and that it was just his "knee's" Now I have been told different and I'm struggling to find the fund's for his surgery that could improve his life and make it last abit longer. Everyday is a struggle for him you can see it in his eye's, He get's these really sad eye's that break's my heart. I will know after christmas exactly how much I will need for his surgery but I have been told a rough estimate of 2'000 euro for a consult and more check ups and pre-op if needed. He has helped me through so many bad times and his like a child to me, it’s now my turn to be there for him. I would be lost without him and the fact that I'm giving him medication that is shorting his life is killing me. I understand everyone struggles with money and I'm not asking for huge amounts of any one but 2 or 5 euro would be a great help towards his medical bills and i will be forever thankful.
