Support Our Cat Theo's Emergency Surgery

Donation protected
Hi everyone,

We’re reaching out with hopeful spirits to ask for help for our loving cat, Theo.

Theo is 5 years old—an endlessly curious, mischievous, and incredibly sweet black cat who brings so much light into our lives. He’s the kind of cat who chirps at birds, steals socks, and snuggles up with you when you need it most. He’s truly family.

Unfortunately, Theo recently developed a dangerous intestinal blockage. We rushed him to the emergency vet, and they confirmed that emergency surgery was the only way to save his life. The total cost is nearly $6,000, which we simply weren’t prepared for.

Right now, we’ve had to put the bill on a credit card. We’re facing around $1,000 in monthly payments for the next 6 months, which is a huge strain on our finances. We're doing everything we can to manage it, but we’re also asking for help—from friends, family, and kind strangers who understand how much a pet can mean.

If you’re able to contribute anything, even a few dollars, it would make a huge difference for us and for Theo’s recovery. And if you’re not in a position to donate, just sharing this page would mean the world. We're also using our small business to try to save money through PortalsApparel.com, if you feel called to purchase a print or anything to help us make our payments.

Thank you so much for reading and for helping us give Theo the second chance he deserves.

With love and gratitude,
Heather & Max
