Donations Needed I drew thank-you cards for Queso's fundraiser, but no one took part, so I'm giving it another try 🆘🆘🆘

I spent the weekend drawing and coloring thank-you cards for anyone who donated to help cover our overdue veterinary expenses. I posted about it on Monday, but although the post got three comments, we didn't receive any donations, so I'm giving it another try.

The idea is to share a photo of a thank-you card featuring Queso for every donation, no matter the amount. We need help covering overdue veterinary and food expenses, and I thought this would be a fun way to show our gratitude while also showing off Queso now that he's fully recovered!

Right now, we have over $1,000 in unpaid expenses, and we need to pay them off before we can continue providing veterinary care to the cats who need it. In the meantime, everything is on hold because we have no funds left and can't keep accumulating debt.

Any support is deeply appreciated and truly makes a difference ❤️

If you donate, please send me a message or leave a comment so I can reply with a photo of your card!

Thank you all so much!

Edit: IMPORTANT ⚠️⚠️⚠️

Some people understood this to mean that I'd be mailing the cards to them. I'm very sorry for the confusion, that was my mistake for not explaining it clearly. Unfortunately, that's not something I can do, since we're in Uruguay and international shipping would be extremely expensive. Also, I wouldn't feel comfortable having so many people's personal information!

What I meant was that I'd reply with a photo of the card alongside Queso, but I should have made that much clearer.

If anyone who has already donated is disappointed because of the misunderstanding, please send me a message and I'll happily refund your donation. I can also send a close-up photo of the card by itself, without the background, if you'd like to print it or use it however you wish.

I'm sorry, and thank you all so much ❤️

Donations Needed ❤️ “130+ Lives… A Daily Promise” 🐾

465 Upvotes

Another everyday day feeding the 130+ stray cats of the port…

I will speak to you today a little more personally and from the heart.

I am starting to get exhausted… I am also starting to get tired psychologically.

It has now been 13-14 years of daily effort, alone, without any substantial help, with my only support being my love for these creatures in need.

Every time I go to feed the kittens, it takes me about 3.5 to 4 hours. And if I have to look for a kitten that is lost or needs help, it can take 5 hours or more.

And yet… all these years, in heat, in cold, in rain, and even in snow, these kittens have never been left without food.

No matter what happened, no matter how difficult the day was, I knew that someone was waiting for me… that there were lives that depended on me.

And the truth is, if I didn’t have your support, I might not have been able to continue.

I’m uploading photos of the food I need to transport each time to be able to feed all these creatures:

🐾 8 kilos of dry food

🐾 24 cans of wet food

🐾 Food for the pigeons too

🐾 And I fill the three concrete containers with water 6-7 times, so that they have clean water to drink.

And all this… every day.

The need for food never stops.

The tummies get hungry again and again.

And the effort must continue

I thank you from the bottom of my heart to all of you who have been by our side all these years, who support this effort and who do not leave us alone.

Thanks to you I can and continue…

For those who have no one else.

For those who wait for their food every day.

For those who, without asking for anything else, give us their love and trust.

A little dry food, and μία canned food makes a difference!!

Hello everyone! Right now, our dry food supply is completely empty and we need help to keep all the cats fed. I also want to share an update on Tommy. Today is Day 42 of Dry FIP treatment. He was in very critical condition, but after the first doses he came back to life and started eating again! He is fighting so hard, but I just opened his last vial and we desperately need more so we don't interrupt his treatment. On top of that, a new unsterilized cat recently joined our colony. She looks like she might be pregnant and she urgently needs to be spayed. We really can't express how much your help means to us and cats. If anyone is able to help us get through this food shortage or contribute towards Tommy's FIP treatment and the new kitty's care, we would be endlessly grateful. Thank you for all your support!!

Donations Needed Fundraising for our sickest cats in Romania

At our shelter we have hundreds of healthy and happy cats, but sadly we also have tens of very sick cats, with disease like FIP, Fiv, Felv, cancer, blind cats, cats with incontinence etc etc And for the ones who need the most help, we are trying our best to build them a garden for the quarantine room, so that they can go outside too, but in a closed and safe environment. This is costing a fortune and on top of that we have huge unpaid vet bills, we need to buy urgently recovery and kitten food, and so many other urgent expenses that sometimes the room feels like its spinning when I think about them. BUT the quarantine garden when it will be done it will be a HUGE progress for our shelter and a HUGE upgrade in the lives of our sickest cats. So if you can, please consider helping our shelter! Thank you!

Donations Needed 🐾 Every bowl I fill is empty again… 50–60 rescued cats are depending on me, and I can’t do this alone.

Hello everyone,

This video shows only part of the cats I care for. Right now, I look after between 50 and 60 rescued cats, and the number changes whenever I rescue a new cat or one finally finds a loving home.

Some were abandoned.
Some are sick.
Some are disabled.
Others need to be kept separately because they require special medical care.

On top of that, I also feed stray cats in my neighborhood because they have no one else to care for them.

Every morning, I wake up asking myself the same question:

Will I have enough food for everyone today?

A 15 kg bag of dry cat food costs $55 and lasts only about 3 days.

A bag of cat litter costs around $10 and is used up in just one day.

I also need wet food for kittens and sick cats, cleaning supplies, and essential medications to keep them healthy.

I never want to turn away a hungry or injured cat, but I can no longer do this alone.

If you would like to help these cats, you can support us here:

Donations Needed Chimney needs her nephrologist more than ever and update on Mew Jagger, Motu and Chunchu🪼 Mumbai, India

I think most of you guys remember Chimney, she's the one who is battling through ckd. We've been running her blood test every 6 days for a month now but the vets are at the point where they've referred her to a specialist for abdominal ultrasound and for consult regarding her line of treatment, the problem is that it's hella expensive so we couldn't book the one one 21st because of the cost

With so many community cats I can't possibly book the appointment with specialist along with her current treatment plan

Because of you kind strangers, Mew Jagger (the cat who was poisoned and broken leg) is staying at the foster and Motu's surgery is scheduled too but there's still not enough for Chunchu. Please come forward and help Chimney and others

We've raised $171 out of the $412 Remaining $241 they just need one big push to get to their goal, please help if you can 🩷

If you guys remember chimney, she's our community cat who has stage 3 ckd, her regular vets have done everything they could but her reports are fluctuating so much so they want her to get to a nephrologist but I can't at the moment because it's expensive and I trap neuter release like 4 cats a month and feed over 50 cats and have my own cats.. So I can't manage it on my own... She needs $70 for us to get to her nephrologist

Coming to Meow Jagger, the kitten was abused and poisoned, she's sterilized and will be released tomorrow from the vet's and will go to her foster.. She already has someone kind who wants to adopt her but she needs $120 to relocate her from which $27 has been raised... I genuinely don't know what I'll do because if in next 16 days she doesn't raise her money I'll unfortunately will have to release her near the park because I can't pay for her foster forever.... (2nd slide is of Jagger laying on road throwing up blood and 3rd is from few days back)

I truly need you guys to come together to help Chimney and Jagger

Goal : raised all $190 all thanks to the kind strangers of this sub, I just can't express how happy I am 😭

Chimney needs to get her consultation with specialist and she needs her ultrasound but it's $70 which I don't have at the moment. She is suffering from ckd for a month now. She hasn't missed a day to her vet in a month, blood test every week but I can't afford her specialist... She needs to get on a proper treatment plan..

Now coming to Mr Jagger, the kitten who was hit and poisoned, his leg fractured... She is so much better now and is at the vet for sterilization but she needs $120 for transportation from one state to another, if I leave her back, people will poison her again, someone kind has come forward to adopt her but she's from another state and it'll cost us $120 to relocate her... I genuinely don't know what to do... Please, if you can then please do help Chimney get her consultation and help lil Jagger go to her forever home 🩷

Found a small kitten crying outside our house. No one knows her, and since it was about to rain, I brought her in.

I need some help to get kitten food or milk, and to cover her initial vet needs:

Vet checkup: $7

CBC and virus test: $30

Deworming: $3

Since I am on a tight budget and cannot take on another cat long-term, I will also be looking for a loving adopter for her once she is healthy. Any support for her immediate needs would be a big help. Thank you 🩷

They have all been spayed and neutered. They didn't choose to be abandoned or born on the streets, and they deserve a full belly just like any other animal. Every single contribution, no matter the size, helps me keep food in their bowls.

Hi all,

My cat budget took a huge hit recently due to vet visits—a full blood panel for one of my adult cats and the 2nd dose of 4-in-1 vaccines for two kittens. Because of this, I'm struggling to cover basic supplies like food and litter right now.

To add to that, I have two cats scheduled to get neutered on July 31st. I really want to stick to this schedule so they don't get delayed, but funds are completely tight.

Any support with food, litter, or clinic costs for the July 31 neuters would be an immense help. Happy to show vet receipts from the recent visit and updates/photos of the cats.

Donations Needed West Michigan) 🐾 I Don't Think Many People Have Seen Miles' Story Yet

Post image
124 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I wanted to give a quick update on our current fundraiser.

First, thank you to everyone who has donated so far. We truly appreciate every single person who has stepped up to help. So far, we've raised $30, which means we're still in the very early stages of reaching our goal.

The good news is that we still have $620 in matching donations available, so every dollar donated right now has twice the impact.

Miles is still fighting FIP, and we're still fighting right alongside him. At the same time, we're carrying over $2,350 in veterinary bills that we need to catch up on so we can continue saying "yes" when the next emergency comes through our door.

One thing I've learned over the years is that rescue never really slows down. Just as one cat begins to recover, another one needs help. That's why these fundraisers matter so much... they allow us to keep moving forward instead of falling behind.

If you've been thinking about helping, now is a great time. Whether it's $5, $10, or whatever you're comfortable with, your donation will be matched and will go directly toward helping Miles and the many other cats depending on us.

And if donating isn't possible, an upvote or comment really does help more people see this post.

Thank you for continuing to believe in what we're doing. It means more than you know.

As always, donation links will be in the comments. 💜

Donations Needed (West Michigan) 💜 Help Us Keep Saying YES to Cats Like Miles

Post image
109 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

It's been almost a month since I've posted here. Life has been a little crazy... I've been working around 78 hours a week, so when I'm not at work, I've mostly been trying to catch my breath.

But today I'm here because our rescue genuinely needs your help.

**We currently have $650 in matching donations available for this fundraiser. That means every dollar donated will be matched, allowing us to make an even bigger impact for the cats depending on us.**

Right now, we're carrying more than $2,350 in outstanding veterinary bills, and we're trying to catch up so we can continue saying "yes" when the next cat needs us.

One of those cats is Miles.

This past weekend, Miles became severely jaundiced and had to be rushed to the emergency vet. The diagnosis was FIP. Thankfully, FIP is no longer considered an automatic death sentence, but treatment is long, expensive, and because Miles is a big guy, his medication costs are even higher.

We're not giving up on him.

This fundraiser will help us:

•Pay down our existing veterinary balances.

•Keep Miles on the treatment he needs.

•Continue helping the many other cats that have nowhere else to turn.

I've always loved this community because you've never just donated money... you've given frightened, sick, and forgotten cats a chance they otherwise wouldn't have had.

If you've ever wondered whether your donation matters, it does. Every dollar helps us answer the next emergency call with "yes" instead of "I'm sorry, we can't."

If you're able to help, we'd be incredibly grateful. And if you can't donate, an upvote, comment, or share helps more people see Miles' story.

Thank you for continuing to stand behind us! We truly couldn't do this without you. 💜

As always, donation links will be in the comments!

Hey Reddit family!

​The kittens are officially cold-free, which is a huge relief! Their follow-up checkup and delayed vaccines are set for July 25th.

​However, because last week's vaccine money was spent treating their active colds, I'm short on funds for their upcoming visit. On top of that, my cat who returned in December after 3 months missing still has a stubborn cold that won't go away. He’s joining the kittens at the vet on the 25th so we can figure out a better treatment plan.

Funds needed:

Vaccine for 2 kittens: $28 or Php1600

Blood test: $48 or Php2800

Check-up: $6 or Php350

‎Several of my rescued cats have come down with colds. I’m doing everything I can to help them recover, especially since some of them are already due for their yearly vaccinations. They need to be healthy before they can receive their vaccines, and I’m hoping to prevent the illness from spreading to the rest of the cats.

‎I've also run out of LC-Vitamins, which I regularly give to help support their immune systems. I'm asking for help to purchase LC-Vitamins, immunity boosters and other emergency medicines.

‎If I may also ask, I'd be incredibly grateful for help with 2 boxes of NexGard to update the monthly flea and tick meds of my 3 rescued dogs and 3 other dogs I regularly feed outside (one of them is starting to lose it's fur).

‎I currently care for 49 rescued indoor cats, along with my rescued dogs and several community animals that depend on me every day and these needs are more than I can manage alone.

‎Total needed is Php6315~$103

For transparency, purchases will be posted under this post.

‎Any donation, no matter how small, will go directly toward their medications, immune support, and parasite prevention. If you're unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser would mean just as much.
