Help Josh and His Cats Through Tough Times

Hi everyone,

I am sharing this desperate plea on behalf of my dear friend, Josh Riptide, in his own words. He has found himself in an unexpected predicament. If you are in any position to help, even the smallest amount will make a huge difference for him and for his 4 cats.

"I never thought I’d be in this position, but life has thrown me some tough punches lately, and I’m reaching out for help.

Recently, I was suspended indefinitely (basically let go) at my job after 13 years of loyal work .

The loss of income in the last three weeks has left me completely stranded, with bills piling up and no safety net to fall back on.

To make matters even more difficult, I’ve been battling some health issues — last year I suffered from a stroke and had to undergo emergency appendix surgery.

Some of the medications that I have been taking have terrible side effects and are even affecting my mental health negatively.

I’ve been actively applying for jobs every day, doing everything I can to get back on my feet, but so far, there have been no solid leads.

I’m determined to push through this, but right now, I need a little support to help cover basic living expenses — rent, food, utilities, taking care of my cats — while I continue my job search.

If you’re able to contribute, even a small amount, it would mean the world to me. And if you can’t donate, sharing this page would be a huge help too.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I appreciate your kindness more than words can say."

With gratitude,

Josh Riptide
