Help Needed for Rent, Bills, and Kitten Care

Donation protected
UPDATE: Feb 9, 2026.

Slowly getting back on track but it's still paying back months of time when I didn't know what was going on with my partner. Seizure watches are getting a lot easier for me to handle so my mental capacity is doing a lot better! Managing work and care giving has been a learning experience but one I don't regret taking on one bit.

NOW THIS CAR REPAIR? Offended. I need my car fixed because my partners car is older and less reliable and has adjustments on it that make it less safe to drive in this weather. They quoted me $3440 but I'm hoping it'll lower before I get there in a week (hopefully, but doubtful).

Rent is almost caught up to be month to month but I'm half short this month still. We also had some people offer to give us a hand at the house lately and cook to give us breaks / extra catch up time! This is just...the last little stretch I know it I can FEEEEEEL it.

Thank you so much to everyone who's been helping my partner and I navigate this scary and challenging time and to all the kind words, support, and reassurance that we can get through this. We couldn't do it without you.

I hate asking for help, but many of you felt more comfortable helping towards a GoFundMe, and I'm just not in a position to ask why because I don't have much time to get this done since going weeks being sick and suffering HEAVY medication side effects that prevented me from working and even socializing normally. I'd say this is past the point of caring if I have to make a GoFundMe or not.

So here's what I'm starting with, just rent. I have till 11/8 to pay both months or they file for eviction. This has been every month, every other month for the last several months, and it's been exhausting on my stress and health. I'm just starting with rent because above all else, I don't want to have to figure out moving alongside everything else WHILE recovering from being sick still. My cough still hasn’t gone away even with two rounds of steroids and meds. 

Rent is $2835 ($1417 for November).
***updated Rent is behind $750 for February.

a couple fans split one month so I have THIS MONTH still to cover!
I'm leaving rent on the list because I'm going to be behind for next month now that I'm seeing how behind I am...and I just don't wanna have to do this at the beginning of next month too.

This is my main goal, but if I only hit this, I'm still going to be behind, and I don't really want to get to the end of this month doing this AGAIN...

Utilities $70.49 by 11/14, shut off by the 5th/6th (whenever they send someone actually out).
**** Utilities are past due $89.40 and I assume I'll have a shut off notice soon if I don't already.
Phone $288.40 by 11/16.
Car insurance $130 by 11/10.
Health insurance $61.62 by 11/3.

***feb2026 if you can help with any of my usual monthly bills, it makes it easier to take time off for hospital trips, overnight stays (ICU/ACU), and time to take with my partner when he's down for a day or two from post seizure fog.

Home total with rent is $3385. (this is my usual monthly output)

Now let's talk kitties. I need to get the babies adopted out, but no one will take them without their shots and being fixed, so

UPDATE: Local community offered to cover the spay and neuters NO CHARGE, so all I need to cover is their shots!! 

My kitties don't do well with cheap food because I've kept them on such good diets till recently, below is their usual costs / upkeep (updated feb2026)

Food $350
Pee Pads $200
Litter $300
Waterless Shampoo $20
Pet Wipes $15
Laundry Deodorizer $20
treats + extras (this is optional but would love to spoil my babies again) $$$any extras for the babies are appreciated

Last, if I genuinely get all of this covered, it would be nice to catch up on my business as well (Miss Faye). That way, I don't keep losing links/platforms sharing ability, which costs me a lot of money in the long run. I unfortunately signed myself up a couple of years ago when I was doing a lot better for yearly/every couple of year plans, and they are expensive. I lose features if I change them now and will end up paying more for less if I lose these.

Main site (Miss Faye) paid every 2 years.
$900.90 (already past due) for website fees + running.
This also includes past due fees as well; this isn't the usual cost.
****moved to monthly plan with upcharge.(feb2026)

Weeble + Wobble paid yearly.
$373.23 (already past due).
***still past due as of feb 2026

My Merch Shop paid yearly.
$373.23 (already past due, same type of plan as Weeble and Wobble).
***still past due as of feb2026

Discord monthly.
$54.99 by 11/4 (they shut my custom link off, and people can't find the server).
*****this has been shut off every other month which keeps people from accessing my server / info / promo (feb2026)

Business fee total is (Jesus Christ fr) $1702.35.
***any monthly help to keep my sites running keeps them from going down.

I also have 2 therapy appointments every month that run $125 a session.
***I've missed a lot of therapy and done emails and I'd really like my regular appointments back (feb2026)

I do so much for so many around me and it's cost me so much in the long run from people who take advantage of that and while I still want to care for my community, I think it's time I ask for help in return. This is a LOT I know, but I would give anything to be back on my feet, working regularly, and able to do more community care again. It's what I love and I know it's needed right now. So, help me get back to helping you?
