My cat Roxy has been my companion for more than 17 years. She was recently diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, a heart murmur and kidney disease. She's still moderately active, and her personality has not changed much otherwise. However, she requires a special diet and regular visits to the vet for frequent blood panels to monitor her thyroid levels.

I'm asking for your help, as I'm on social security with very limited income. My estimated expenses for the upcoming year of Roxy's care is $6,300. Any donations would be greatly appreciated.

Very gratefully yours,

Anne & Roxy
