Saving Fina (aka Baby)

My precious girl Fina whose nickname is baby because she is a tiny girl is fighting for her life. She has always been special needs almost dying as a kitten from the parasite giardia and has had severe skin allergies all her life. She is only 6 and half yrs old. Back in May we noticed some weight loss and some problems with her teeth. After a vet visit it was decided she needed dental surgery,when she had the blood work before her surgery,they noticed her kidney values were a little high but nothing major. She had 10 teeth removed but never really gained weight after surgery. And we kept having to take her in every few weeks because she was dehydrated. About a month ago I noticed she was rapidly losing weight,and urinating and drinking more often,I took her in almost 2 weeks ago for another blood test and it showed she had advanced kidney disease. Many cats can live quality lives with kidney disease they just need some extra care. She is a fighter and has shown she isn’t ready to go anywhere yet. The vets do think the weight loss is making things worse. She has been on kidney medicine and an appetite stimulate. She is going to need some more testing and possibly a feeding tube to get her weight back up. The extra testing will let the vet know exactly what stage is her kidney disease is.  This girl has been with me since she was a baby and bonded to me. I’ve spent every extra dime I’ve had in the last few months and just need a little extra help. I’ve always not liked asking for help but even if it’s a few dollars or more every bit helps and adds up. She isn’t ready to give up and the wonderful special cat she is deserves a chance. She isn’t just a pet to me she is family. I have lupus and also developed epilepsy and have seizures, a lot of them in my sleep and this girl has actually woken me up out of seizures when I was having trouble breathing by pawing me in the face and meowing and possibly saved my life numerous times. How can I not try everything I can to save hers? So please if you can help me save this precious girl who means the world to me.
