Hi, my name is Shyer and pictured with me is my kitty Chloe. I think of her as my other half, my soulmate, my compass, my heart and my world. I have such an amazing bond with her, since the moment we locked eyes. I love animals and always have, but there is something more between her and I. I truly feel as though she was born to be my kitty. She is also my registered ESA service pet.
Last week I found out that she has a tumor in her oral cavity and it was tested and found to be Fibrosarcoma, and needs to be removed. It is pretty painful for cats and she refuses to eat, so it's been a lot of force feeding and slurry. She will need chemo/radiation treatments but until the tumor comes out and her margins are cancer free, we won't know for how long. It's currently being estimated at once every 3 weeks for 4 months. Because we caught it early enough, her prognosis is very good. However, I need help treating her. Since the pandemic, things have been difficult for me financially, and while I have insurance for her, it's a very basic policy that covers only injuries, not illnesses. The cost for Chloe's treatment is estimated between $2,000 - $3,000. The estimate amount includes the tumor removal, pathology of the tumor, 2 day hospital stay, chemo/radiation and her recovery (the medication alone gets pricey). I just don't have the money to have her treated and to pay my monthly bills and keep a roof over our heads. This perfect little girl is the sweetest and friendliest creature on the planet. She has gotten me through the lowest and darkest part of my life several years back, and is what gets me out of bed each day. She has always been here for me, and hasn't needed much. Now that she does need my help, I will do whatever is necessary to get it for her. I think at some point we have all had the burden of an unexpected emergency with a pet. Already being worried about their well being, but then the financial burden that takes effect and it feels like the walls are closing in.
I am asking for your help for my sweet girl. Anything amount will help. If you cannot donate, that is ok too, sharing this fundraiser helps, too. My perfect girl deserves to live. She deserves the world, and I want to give that to her. I cannot imagine a world without her in it. I've had 13 amazing years with her, and I'd like another 13 or more!!
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and for considering helping her....
<3
Much love,
Chloe and Shyer
