Sekhmet Needs Your Help for Surgery

Donation protected
Hi there! My kitty Sekhmet needs another surgery to remove cancer lumps. In September of 2024 she had surgery to remove some lumps and biopsies showed them to be mammary carcinoma; basically kitty breast cancer. Testing showed we didn’t get clear margins, which is no one’s fault since we didn’t know what we were dealing with at the time, so we need to do another surgery as some nodules have already come back. We had started chemotherapy with the intention of getting 5 doses and then doing the second surgery but unfortunately the surgery is needed asap. I’ve been able to manage paying for chemo by taking on extra work in addition to my full time job and some help from family but this large expense is a bit out of my means on my own.

Our vet oncologist referred us to a low cost vet surgeon and the cost is half of what it would have been and the oncologist office so I’m already so grateful for that. $2k will cover bloodwork and imaging, to make sure she’s healthy enough for surgery and to confirm the cancer hasn’t spread to her lungs or any other organs. If that’s all good then they’ll proceed with the surgery which will remove the nodules and the rest of her right mammary chain. That will get sent to histopathology to make sure we have clear margins and once recovers we will continue with chemo treatments.

My girl is only 9 and because remission is possible for her I want to fight this cancer! She’s done so well with her first surgery and chemo so she’s clearly putting up a fight on her end as well! Anything you can give would be greatly appreciated!
