<div>I'm Jenny, and this is my one-year old kitty Melog. He's been diagnosed with Juvenile Hyperplastic Gingivitis, which means no amount of home care will improve the gum inflammation he's had since I adopted him 6 months ago! He needs a dental cleaning under anesthesia, or he'll eventually lose the ability to eat &amp; then ultimately die of sepsis.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I do have pet insurance, but of course they won't cover dental! Most cleanings cost around $1,500 - $2,000, but this one is going to cost around $3,000 because it's so extensive. I'm disabled from Long COVID &amp; I can only work part-time. I can't afford a $3,000 procedure! But I won't let my sweet kitty suffer. He can live a normal, healthy, long life-- as long as he gets the medical care he needs!

Jenny's Plea: Melog Needs Lifesaving Care

<div>Hello friends!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Meff here! You may know me from my work as a drag guitar-dandy (Walter Sickert &amp; the Army of Broken Toys), Co-Host and Force Captain (<em>Hey, Adora: A Queer She-Ra podcast</em>), or one of the other weird, wonderful places we have crossed paths and made art and music and magic and all manner of chaos.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As some of you may know, I’ve had all manner of big damn life changes in the past few years, and I’ve spent some time trying to figure out what the next step of my adventure looks like. I’ve been doing quite a bit of audio production recently - both with my podcast and for smaller, personal projects, and I’ve been loving it. I feel like I've found a really wonderful niche for me. It’s a wonderful mix of creativity, technology, collaboration, and fussy hyper-focus that works really well for my weird brain. Lucky for me, I was accepted to a program where I can learn the ins and outs of professional audio production.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Unlucky for me, I got accepted at the last minute, and I need help paying for the class, the course book, and a new set of headphones.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’m not exactly flush with cash at the moment, and the timeline to pay for the first session is pretty tight. I missed the deadlines for many of the available scholarships, and while I am actively pursuing other grants and scholarship options, I need to raise the money to secure my spot in the program.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’m looking to raise $2,400 for the first session, with a stretch goal of $7,200 for the whole program. Every single dollar raised will go towards tuition, materials, and fees associated with the program. I have listed all of the expenses below, as well as information about the program for full transparency.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This would be a genuine life-changing experience for me. I’ve been looking for a new way to rededicate my life to music, art, and technology, and this seems like the perfect way for me to do that. One of the things that drives me is making art with other people, and this will enable me to do more of that.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’m ready for the next adventure and would love a bit of help to get there.
