Advice Needed 1 Stray Cat Losing Weight *UPDATE VET APPT MADE* GOAL REACHED FOR VET

[jennielynn1970]

Would it really kill your sister to keep him inside for one night?? I'm sorry, but she wants them taken care of, she could at least help out.

Like I said, the meds I sent should be the be the basics for an infection. If, however, he needs something for another kind of affliction, I don't have anything else.

Can your sister keep Fatty in a large carrier with a pee pad in it, so at least he can be confined (since she's worrying about him spraying).

The bottom line is he'd just have to be confined for the night till you got there the next day. He's not going to do that much damage (if he does at all) in that amount of time. Would one of the neighbors that feeds them be willing to shelter him for the night?? One night is not an eternity, and again, if she wants him to be helped, she be a little more humane and helpful in the situation.

Jenn,

Trust me I tried to reason with my sister and she just won't. I know it makes you guys mad because you guys have donated money and she's not willing to help but she doesn't see stray cats like we see them.

She has told me that she thinks he's had a good run and well she just thinks he's getting older and that's with age. She hasn't ever asked me to take him to the vets or get him help. I'm just doing this on my own but I was talking with my husband tonight and we were figuring out financial stuff and well I have 100 left to get myself through till the end of the month since I had to put money aside for Athena's hernia surgery at the end of the month so I'm sad to say that unless I raise enough money to cover his vet visit $36 along side with the $56 still needed, I will have to cancel his appointment for now and return the donations until I can come up with the funds.

I hate to do that but I don't feel I have any other option at this time especially since I will be driving 2 1/2 hours one way and then back home again which will take probably $60-$80 for the gas alone.

Well see what this week brings but if I have to cancel his appointment I have to do so within 24 hours before the appointment to avoid the $55 no show fee.

Melissa,

Hang onto my donation. Hopefully you will have enough donations to cover the rest and can still take him this week, if not next week then. Hang in there.
