Maunzi is my cat, but truly, she is my family. Watching her go from a happy, playful cat to struggling with a serious illness has been one of the hardest experiences of my life. After multiple veterinary visits, we learned that Maunzi has a severe medical condition. She developed fluid buildup that required emergency treatment, and after consulting with veterinarians, we are starting treatment for suspected feline infectious peritonitis while continuing to rule out other possible causes. I am doing everything I can to give Maunzi the best chance at recovery, but this has quickly become more than I can manage on my own.

Every donation will go directly toward Maunzi’s medical care, including diagnostic testing, treatment for suspected FIP, follow-up appointments, medications, and supportive care. The total cost is expected to exceed $8,000, and my parents have been helping cover expenses through CareCredit while I work to raise funds and keep Maunzi’s care going. Maunzi has brought so much love and comfort into my life, and now I want to be there for her when she needs me most. My hope is that treatment will help her feel like herself again and give her the chance to be comfortable, play, purr, and enjoy life. If you’re able to donate, thank you from the bottom of my heart. If you can’t, sharing this fundraiser would mean the world to us. Every bit of support helps Maunzi keep fighting.
