Please Help Velma Fight FIP and Live, Please

I’m adding on to this long ass cry for help because my Velma is not out of the woods! FIP warriors group and my vet see a beautiful improvement in most of her bloodwork, except for something called neutrophils and esonophils which basically means that #1 the injection can be harming her or #2 she may have a parasite. Velma needs to continue treatment via pill form for an additional month so she will not finish July 5th, now it will be July 23. Unfortunately, the pills cost so much more than the vials. I’m actually left with a few vials that I’m trying to use if I can’t get the money together for the pills. If I do then I will try to sell but in the interim, I only have large pills I originally purchased and am having a huge issue giving them to her so we’re back on the injections until I can raise the funds. Believe it or not, one day of pills is $42!!!! Insane right! If you can please find it in your heart to make a donation if you’re in a position to, it would be immensely appreciated! Any little bit can help. Also, sharing can help as well. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.

This is the absolute last thing I wanted to do. I apologize in advance, but this is my last hope. My cat Velma was diagnosed with Wet Fip on April 10th. I was fortunate to know someone in rescue who helped me obtain the medication that will help Velma heal. She gets one daily injection which is quite painful for her. It’s painful for me as well just to watch. My heart breaks for this little cat. When she was diagnosed originally, the vet bill was $290 which I was able to pay and the VERG bill was over $1900 which I also paid. I maxed out every credit card I have and used every bit of cash. In order to raise funds for the medication, I started to sell off my nail polish collection, and I raised a decent amount. I was able to purchase a number of vials of the medication, a scale, and various syringes and whatever she would need to help her on this journey. I was hoping to be able to switch over to pills for the rest of the 84 days but unfortunately, it’s waayyyy out of my budget! The people that give you the dosage made a huge mistake and were under dosing her. After I caught the mistake yesterday, she began to get double dosage of the injection which now means I need more vials. Velma is definitely a fighter! Even though for the past month, she was receiving only half the dosage that she actually needed, she still fought and started to heal, which means she wants to stay with us. As I began to look into the pills which is a less painful option for her, basically, she would need one pill a day that would cost $28 and then two other pills which are anywhere from $10 to I believe $3 dollars each to make up the Milligrams or however they calculate it. Financially, a $28 pill for 50some days is totally out of the question. I took the rest of the money that I made from selling my nail polish and I ordered more of the injections last night so that I know I would have it on hand. Velma needs three vet visits for bloodwork, the first one will be this Monday, May 13th. I do have insurance for her, but this visit will go towards her deductible and I need some help y’all, plus, she will need more of the medication. From what I understand, this medication was only sold through the black market. As of June, I believe they are finally making it legal in the United States. I’m sure the pricing will be the same as the pill form that I stated above because it will be in a compounded pill form, but I don’t have the time to wait. I need to help her now. I’m begging. I have to save her! When Velma came to me, she was feral and afraid of her own shadow. All she did was hide and run and hide more. She wouldn’t eat if I was anywhere near her, if she heard the bell ring she’d run and hide. Finally, after nine months, she learned to trust me and she became my best friend. in 2023, when I was constantly in and out of

the hospital, she got so thin because she hid in my dresser drawers because now there were strangers in the house. She barely ate no matter who was here to feed her. When I came back from my last hospital stay in October 2023, she became my shadow. The most sweet and kind, loving and trusting little sweet mama. She’s had such a difficult time at the beginning. She needs to live!!!!! This is just breaking my heart. If you’ve read this far I thank you. I know having a pet is not anyone else’s responsibility but the owners and ive always been extremely responsible for my babies, but I need some help right now. These expenses are hurting me terribly because the money and credit ran out and I have nothing left to sell. All I wanna do is give her another chance of life and a nice life. This fucking FIP is a death sentence for Cats. Please help me save her. Even if you can’t donate, I would appreciate reposting this or send some good juju or a little prayer to whoever you pray to to please help heal my baby. Thank you again everybody.
