Support Fionn's Battle Against Cancer

Donation protected
My name is Kathleen, and I recently found out my cat, Fionn, has cancer. Fionn is my soul-cat. I rescued him and his bonded litter-mate, Fiona, from a neighborhood shelter years ago. They were only a few weeks old.

Fionn was healthy until he was diagnosed with pancreatitis on August 8th, 2025. Two weeks later, an abdominal ultrasound revealed he had plasma cell cancer. The veterinarians considered Fionn a good candidate for chemo, which I learned is tolerated well by the majority of cats.

Fionn has had two chemo treatments so far and is tolerating it well. Between testing, vet visits, and treatment, I have tapped out his $7,000 insurance policy and have exhausted what little savings I had to try and give him a fighting chance. He is not only my constant companion, but he is also bonded with his sister, Fiona, and we would both be brokenhearted and lost without him in our lives.

All funds will be used toward Fionn’s chemotherapy sessions, blood transfusions, and overnight veterinary stays that add up very quickly.

I have donated many hundreds of dollars to desperate pet owners over the last several years, and I hope that some much-needed good karma comes back to me and my Fionn. Any help is appreciated; Fionn, Fiona, and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
