Hello, my name is Soleil, and I am raising money so that my cat, TC (short for tiger claws), can have a dental surgery she very much needs. I tried to save up, and I have saved some, but I didn't realize that she was in so much pain until I saw that she had scratched the fur off her mouth. My cat means the world to me, she has been with me since I was 7 years old, and it's very painful to witness her discomfort. The procedure is more expensive for her because she is an elderly kitty (16 years old and in otherwise excellent health!), so there are extra precautions they have to take.

It's really difficult for me as an entirely self-funded & full-time student (who is already working two jobs to do this) to set aside $2000. I am a little uncomfortable asking for money, as this is not something I have had to do before, but I do not want TC to continue to suffer. Of course, any donation helps, and any sharing of my fundraiser means the world. I will definitely keep things updated on TC's wellbeing and, hopefully soon, her post-surgery condition.

Another thing- If there is any extra funding, it will be used for TC to receive medication for her arthritis in her back legs, called "Solensia". Photo attached!

Thank you for reading and donating to my sweet elderly kitty!!!!!

NOTE: I have heard some people are having trouble making donations with the GoFundMe website. If you would like, you can transfer me the money (e-transfer: contact me, PayPal: @salamis) and I will donate to the fundraiser with your name! Or anonymous if you prefer.

Looking so sad and tiny at the vet :(
