My cat was recently diagnosed with a vaccine induced sarcoma, which is a very aggressive and fast-growing malignant tumor. He had a CT scan this week, and the surgical plan is to amputate his left hind limb to get clear margins. Without treatment, he only has a few months to live. As a veterinary student living off loans, I can't afford the cost of his care.

The funds raised will go toward his CT scan, surgery, radiation, and any other follow-up care he needs. Every dollar will help ensure he gets the treatment he deserves and the best possible chance at recovery.

This is my soul cat. He is only 5 years old and means the world to me. He has gotten me through some really hard times. I am very isolated in Pullman from my friends and family, and he is the best company I have. Everyone who has met him has told me how special he is, and if they ever got a cat, they hope it would be just like him. Any support—big or small—would mean so much to us and help give him the best chance.
