Update on Mr. Binx

I took Binx to the vet on pure hope and love for my fur child. I walked in with $95 in my wallet — money that was supposed to go toward household supplies — because I couldn’t stand the thought of him suffering without at least being seen. The visit was supposed to cost around $500, but the vet only charged me $85 so he could be evaluated. I’m incredibly grateful for that kindness.

To everyone who has donated so far: thank you. Your support has replaced the money that went toward that vet visit, and it has taken a huge weight off my shoulders during an already heartbreaking time.

The vet believes Binx is most likely dealing with cancer. Because of his age and how quickly things have progressed, she explained that even if we pursued every possible treatment, it would only buy a little more time — and it would come with stress and discomfort he doesn’t deserve. I don’t want to put him through anything that would make his final days harder.

With that in mind, this fundraiser is now focused on keeping Binx comfortable and supported for whatever time he has left.

Funds will go toward:

- Additional vet visits focused on comfort

- Medications to keep him pain‑free

- Humane euthanasia when it becomes time

- Anything needed to make his last days peaceful and safe at home

Binx has been such an important part of our family, and we’re doing everything we can to make sure he feels loved, protected, and not in pain. Your support — whether through donations or simply sharing this page — means more than I can express. Thank you for helping us give him the gentle, dignified care he deserves

My sweet cat, Mr. Binx, needs to see a veterinarian as soon as possible. Over the last few days his eye has gotten much worse — it’s now cloudy, swollen, and clearly painful. I’m doing everything I can to keep him comfortable, but this is something only a vet can treat, and waiting could risk his vision or cause him serious pain.

Mr. Binx isn’t “just a pet” to me. He’s my first baby, my constant companion, and we’ve been through hell and back together. Every major chapter of my life, every hard moment, every rebuild — he’s been right there. Seeing him hurting like this is breaking my heart, and I just want to get him the care he needs before things get worse.

I’m in a tough spot financially right now. I’m actively interviewing and expecting to start work soon, but my first paycheck where I would be able to afford a vet visit is still weeks away. I hate asking for help, but I can’t let him suffer while I wait.

The estimated cost for his exam, bloodwork, and medication is $600–$800. Every bit helps — even sharing this page makes a difference. Mr. Binx is a huge part of our family, and he’s been so patient and loving through all of this. I’ll post updates after his appointment so everyone knows how he’s doing.
