 We are desperately trying to raise money for Pirates surgery

she was a stray who I have been feeding for a couple months. But at noon she showed up to my back door very lethargic and weak I thought perhaps she was pregnant and in labor but she kept getting weaker and wouldn’t eat. Then out of desperation she rolled over onto her back exposing a massive hole into her lower abdomen area where you could see inside! She had blood on her leg that I hadn’t been able to see until then. We had to immediately rush her to the emergency she was dying in my room. We needed to get her in a crate immediately I tried to pick her up in the towels she was laying on but she cried out and rolled. Then with the little strength she had, stood up and walked right into the carrier I had unzipped like she knew she needed help and we could save her. We don’t even know how much blood she had lost or what had happened. We rush to the emergency vet and had to wait hours as they ran X-rays and tests. The doctors told us she was mauled by a coyote and she’s gonna need surgery to close her wound. But the wound was too large and infected to close today they also noted 3 puncture wounds on her back. They suggested we take her to a vet every day for the next week to replace the wound dressings and see if the skin around is healthy enough to close and hope the infection doesn’t spread. We have to give her antibiotics and pain meds. Unfortunately I was completely unprepared to take this on financially as I was not expecting to become a cat parent any time soon but she chose me and asked me for help so I need to do whatever I can to raise money to save her life. If you can please donate anything Pirate and I would greatly appreciate it. Or if can’t contribute please share her story so we can afford that surgery for her!
