Support Kiwi’s Health Journey

We are raising funds in support of Kiwi. Kiwi was born in March 2022 and adopted in May 2022 along with her sister, Cherry. Upon arriving at the foster home, Kiwi was placed in her new mom’s hands (yes, hands - she was that tiny) and there was no putting her down, that was that. The foster home also had their mom, Peach and their brother, Plum. Peach was also in need of a home, and the girls’ new grandma simply could not leave her behind. Grandma really wanted to keep the family together (as much as they could living separately) and take Plum with her as well, but he was being adopted by another family that day (even after trying to convince them otherwise). So, Kiwi’s new mom took her and Cherry home, and grandma took Peach home.

Kiwi was a very special kitten. She was immediately attached to her new mom, following her everywhere and finding a comfy place to lay on her whenever she could. Kiwi wins the hearts of everyone she meets with her sweet, silly and unique demeanor. But don't let that sweet face fool you, she is also an absolute monster when it comes to food, especially when it doesn't belong to her.

Kiwi started having medical issues in September 2023. Kiwi has endured everything from seizures to severe constipation (needing procedures), episodes of feline idiopathic cystitis (FIC), sudden abstinence from food for long periods of time, and more. Kiwi has been to a plethora of vets, including a neurologist, but we’re still left with little answers and not the best care for Kiwi’s specific needs. Vet bills and medication has totaled over $5,000 in the last year or so. A lot of her symptoms lead back to neurological issues and the current possible diagnosis is that she has a brain disease, but we wouldn't know exactly what's going on without an MRI, costing $3,500-4,500.

We are asking for donations to help Kiwi continue her medical journey and make her the most comfortable for the rest of her life. Thank you for any contribution you are able to make. <3
