my cat miss prissy

Exactly.... FREE!

My girl only cost me $35 to spay last year. If I hunted a little further, I might have found something free.

Where there is a will, there is a way. Its very simple - pick up the phone and start dialing numbers. Start with the local SPCA, Humane Society, Animal Rescue League. Go from there. SOMEBODY will know where to go in your area.

I do have to ask: WHY have a pet if you can't afford even the basic health care for it? When was the last time she even saw a vet? If you can't afford a $50 spay, how can you afford the basic yearly exam? Mine all cost $100 for their yearlies. What fi she has a major health crisis? What if the pregnancy has complications? A trip to the emergency vet would add up to $500 FAST. A spay at the most expensive Veterinary hospital is not even half that.

You really need to get her spayed. The people here aren't trying to be rude, they know what they are doing. Please call around to see if someone can do it for free or very little. Lightning's was only $40 or so and he also got a few shots. Please, please, look for a good vet. Are you going to keep the kitties? You can't have the babies outside, they will be very vulnerable to disease. I am praying for you that the babies are delivered safely and that you will find a great vet to nueter your kitty.

We do understand that money is a problem for you right now. There are some extremely experienced and knowledgable people on PT. And when it comes to cats, these fine folks have forgotten more than I'll ever know, I say that with the utmost respect! We all care about Miss Prissy and we understand that you do too. All anyone is saying to you is money doesn't have to be a roadblock for your kitty's health. All you have to do is make some phone calls or get on your computer. This is doable if you make the effort!
