Ces Rivera and her family have always loved and cared for their three cats: Chimmy, Leo, and Tommy. Recently, their world was turned upside down when Tommy, one of their beloved cats, suddenly passed away due to an unknown cause. The loss was devastating, especially for Ces’s daughter, who has been heartbroken ever since. As the family was still grieving, Chimmy, their white cat, began to show worrying signs—she could no longer stand and wasn’t her usual self. Despite their efforts to find a vet late at night, none were available, and the next day, both Chimmy and Leo were rushed to the clinic.

After running tests, the vet diagnosed Chimmy with FIP, a serious and costly illness. Leo, while not tested, is also at risk. The recommended treatment for Chimmy is an 84-day cycle of medication, but the cost is far beyond what Ces’s family can afford. Instead, they are doing their best with antibiotics and oral medications, hoping for a miracle. Weekly vet visits are necessary for both cats, and the bills are quickly adding up. Ces’s family just wants to give Chimmy and Leo a fighting chance after losing Tommy, but they can’t do it alone.

Your support will help cover the ongoing vet bills and medication for Chimmy and Leo, giving them the best possible chance to recover. Any donation, big or small, will bring hope to Ces’s family and help them care for their beloved cats during this incredibly difficult time. Thank you for considering a gift to help them through this journey.
