Give Churro a Chance at a Pain-Free Life

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Erika, and I’m a single mom reaching out with a heavy heart to ask for help for my beloved cat, Churro. She isn’t just a pet; she’s family. She’s been my shadow through the best and worst parts of life, and I cannot imagine life without her.

Unfortunately, Churro is now facing a serious medical emergency. She’s been struggling with painful, recurring urinary issues that have rapidly worsened. After multiple vet visits, tests, and emergency care, we’ve been told that she needs bladder surgery to have any chance at a normal life. The thought of losing her to something we might be able to fix is devastating.

The cost of the surgery, along with care, is beyond what I can manage alone right now. It’s estimated to be around $800, and we’ve already spent hundreds trying to manage her symptoms and keep her stable. Even $5 can make a difference. If you can’t donate, sharing this campaign means the world. Every bit of support gives her a stronger chance at healing.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for reading, for caring, for being the kind of people who show up when others are in need. Churro deserves to keep living her happy, snuggly, mischievous little life, and with your help, I believe she can.
