Help Flash Recover: Support His Medical Care

It's hard for me to do this. I'm not a person who can ask others for things, especially something like money, but I don't really have much of an option anymore; I'm desperate.

Flash is the cat in the picture, and he's currently been hospitalized for about 3 days because of pancreatitis. He had gotten pretty lethargic over some days leading up to us bringing him in and he stopped eating, which is what had us bring him to an emergency animal hospital prior to the appointment we had made which would have happened today, July 15th; he was hospitalized on Saturday, July 13th.

Flash has been with my fiancée for about 7 years and has been with me for a little over a year, and neither of us are ready to lose him. We had to put down our cat Squishy back in March, and it's just too soon for us to let him go without trying everything we can, and so this has put us in a really hard place financially.

Back in December we picked up a stray cat who had been limping and took him in. His name is Dopey and he has been part of our family since, but he has needed a lot of care, from getting neutered, to a full dental exam with teeth pulled, to check-ups because he has severely dry skin and over grooms (leading to cuts and raw skin) and this has all been within the past few months, and we have had to put it all on credit cards.

Flash's care is also going onto credit cards, and the payments are running us dry. We both work essentially 9-5 jobs for pay much lower than we should make, and we have bills to pay outside of our cat's care, along with food expenses and things like gas, we're getting close to negative.

So with desperate times calling for desperate measures, I am creating this GoFundMe to ask for your help. Everything raised is going to be used to pay down the credit cards we're using to help our baby Flash come home to us.

He insists on laying right on my chest when I'm in bed. If he isn't there, he slips between me and my fiancée and sleeps stretched out like a toddler.

He also makes it a point to stretch across my lap when I sit down on the couch to do almost anything. I had never met a cat who just genuinely enjoys receiving love in the way that he does.

Beyond me though, his favorite place is in his dad's arms.

Flash is Carter's world, and I want to help him in absolutely any way that I can, and so I am swallowing my pride or possibly even lack-there-of, and sincerely asking for your help.

Please help me do whatever is possible for the chance of bringing Flash home to us.
