The Bond
Murphy and Marmalade have been inseparable since Marmalade was a kitten. Murphy is my housemate, the individual who—without knowing me from Eve—shared with me their roof and their heart when I needed it most and had nowhere left to turn. Murphy saved my life. They are always putting others first, and right now, I hope that we can do the same for them.
Marmalade, Murphy's sweet and affectionate cat, is their absolute best friend and emotional anchor. Their bond is something I see every day, and it’s clear that Marmalade brings Murphy daily comfort and joy.
Marmalade has the biggest bronze eyes that glow like amber in the sunlight, and to him, Murphy is the best parent in the world. Right now, we're fighting to keep them together.
The Medical Crisis
Right now, we are facing a heartbreaking emergency. Marmalade is suffering from a life-threatening urinary blockage. We are at the emergency vet where he is undergoing an urgent procedure to unblock his system.
However, the vet has told us this is not a permanent cure. To save his life and stop this from happening again, Marmalade needs a specialized Perineal Urethrostomy (PU) surgery immediately. Without it, he will continue to block, suffer immense pain, and eventually face kidney failure.
The Financial Breakdown
We have set our goal at $3,850 to cover the specific veterinary bills and transaction fees, as we do not have the personal funds to cover this sudden emergency.
- Emergency Unblocking (Today): ~$700.00
- PU Surgery (Scheduled ASAP): $2,974.39
- GoFundMe Transaction Fees (~3%): ~$175.00
- Total Goal: $3,850.00
How You Can Help
We are reaching out for help to cover the emergency unblocking and the surgery that will save Marmalade’s life. Any support you can give—whether it's $5 or simply sharing this link—means the world to us and will help keep this loving pair together.
