A falling star fell from your heart and landed in my eyes I screamed aloud as it tore through them And now it's left me blind

Please help me save my cat.

My name is Tecuma Sherman. In 2015, a little stray kitten came into my life by fighting the older neighbourhood cats on my front porch for the food I left out for them. I took him into my house intending just to overnight him and take him to a animal support group in the morning, but he never left. I named him Pyewacket.

In 2016 my mother died. Pyewacket and my mom's two cats were the reason why I got out of bed every day and kept functioning. They were all the family I had left. They were with me through two cross-country moves as I struggled with my grief and tried to get back on my feet.

It's 2023. Pyewacket has been by my side for 8 years. He's a rough-and-tumble boy, and especially likes interrupting me when I videogame. All my friends have heard me suddenly stop and yell over the chat when he decides to get mischievous. He's brought me comfort and joy and even protected me in a dangerous situation.

Yesterday he started to not feel well. He wasn't his normal playful self, and was barely eating. I made a vet appointment, and when I came home tonight, he looked worse. I packed him off to the emergency vet, where it was discovered he has kidney failure. But for how he looked--he was active. He headbutted me in the vet, was curious and explorative, and well--now has the label of 'spicy kitty' due to how he acted for the tests. His vitals were strong, but his creatine in his kidneys is very high.

The emergency vet told me that while euthanasia is an option--she didn't want to recommend it. There's a chance--a slim chance, that this can be reversed. For that, he needs to be hospitalized for at least 2-3 days while they flush his system. The emergency vet wanted 3 grand, which I didn't have. (And they didn't accept payment plans).

So the current plan of action is for me to reach out to low-cost vets in my area and see if I can arrange something to get Pyewacket in and his treatment started. And this is where I am begging for help.

Please. My mom's cats passed of old age in 2019 and 2021. Pyewacket is only 8 years old. If this treatment works and the damage can be reversed, he'll possibly be able to function on a diet for his kidneys.

Please help me give my cat a chance.
