Hi, my name is Deanna and I am desperate for some help in saving our girl. Nikita is only 5 years old and we have had her since she was just a baby. She is usually full of brightness but she is in need of immediate treatment that we can't afford.

We took her to the vet the other day and we were told that she needs to be in the hospital with some extra care because she is going to have Kidney failure if she does not get the treatment that she needs. She has likely been poisened and we can't fathom who would ever want to hurt our girl.

My husband & I have exhausted every other financial resource possible at this point, and there are no other options available. While many people are struggling in todays tough economy, we understand that finances might be tight for some people but this is our last hope.

This is a situation that only has one outcome if there is no help. We do not want to watch our furry girl die over the holidays because we could not afford the costs of treatment. She is well taken care of all of the time and truley loved. She is more than a companion, she is family.

So if you are able to help out, this means a world of difference to us and to Nikita.

Nobody should have to spend the holidays like this.
