Please help me save my Poufy.

Hello, I am Amy and I have 6 beautiful cats.

This cat, Cootie Pouf is one of them. I was just told today that he needs a surgery for a urinary blockage, without which, he will die. I don't have much time because this is an emergency.

Problem was, the emergency vet I took him to wanted $4-$5000 upfront, which I, and nobody I know has all at once on a Sunday. The other choice was euthanasia. I am, quite frankly, not willing to do that to this loving floofy little weirdo but I also don't want him to suffer needlessly.

I had to sign a disclaimer that I was taking him home against medical advice...I need this chance to try and pull as much money as humanly possible by 8:30 AM which at that point he will be going to another vet that hopefully won't give me such a dire choice. I have $1000 of my own. I hate to ask for help, but in this case - it's not for me. It's for my little buddy. He's truly my heart.
