Hello everyone. As I mentioned in previous posts, our landlord is going to sell the house we’re renting, and we have to leave it completely empty by June 1st (so, in just a little over two weeks).

We already found a new place, made it cat-proof and safe, and now we’re in the process of moving all of our rescued cats.

We’ve already moved 20 cats, but right now the debt is so overwhelming (due to veterinary expenses, making the new place safe for the cats, and transportation costs so far) that we can’t continue moving them without some support.

Transporting 10 cats costs $54 (we don’t have our own car), and the current debt is $1,415.

We urgently need to keep moving them as soon as possible in order to meet the deadline. Any help is deeply appreciated and truly makes a difference 🤍

Hello everyone. Right now we have $522 in uncovered veterinary expenses due to Toto’s neurological illness (it turned out not to be neuro FIP, and we’re still running tests to figure out what it is) and Mofletes’ kidney stones. Both of them were taken in within the last few days, they were strays suffering immensely and likely would not have survived if we hadn’t helped them, which is why we took on that responsibility despite the financial situation we’re currently in.

As for the relocation of our rescue, we paid a total of $825 for materials to secure the entrance (we have several escape artists, so we need a “second barrier” at the front door, especially because we’re located next to a highway), safety netting for the windows, and transportation for the first 10 cats being moved. We’re doing the work ourselves to reduce costs, but even so it’s overwhelming, and there are still more than 60 cats left to transport.

Meanwhile, the veterinary treatments and food expenses never stop, so any support truly helps us keep going one more day 🤍

Hello everyone. This is Mofletes (Cheeks), a stray who a few days ago was lying in the middle of the street, unable to move and crying in pain. We thought he had a broken rib because we could feel something out of place when touching him, but it turned out to be an old fracture, and the cause of his current pain is kidney stones. We found this out after taking him to the vet and doing bloodwork, a urine analysis, and an ultrasound.

He has been hospitalized at the vet ever since, receiving treatment. He’s doing quite a bit better, but he’s still in some pain and having difficulty urinating.

We received local help to cover the start of his treatment and the ultrasound, but the hospitalization, medication, renal food, bloodwork, and FIV/FeLV test are still unpaid. As of today, there are $410 left to cover, but that amount increases with each day he needs to stay hospitalized. In addition, once he’s ready, he also needs to be neutered.

As you can see, he is incredibly sweet 🤍 Any help is deeply appreciated and truly makes a difference!

On another note, an update about Toto, the cat with suspected neuro FIP:

We’re starting to suspect that he may not actually have neuro FIP, but something else instead. He’s already been on treatment for several days, and by now we should have seen some improvement, but he continues to get worse.

His FeLV test came back positive, so we now suspect that may be the cause. He will have an ultrasound tomorrow to evaluate whether he has a tumor related to FeLV (we’ve had cases like that before), and depending on the results we’ll decide how to proceed.

In the post about him, we raised $50 to buy GS (the FIP treatment), but someone donated a few vials, so we’ll use that money to pay for tomorrow’s ultrasound instead. I’ll let you all know the results afterward.

Thank you all so much!

Hello everyone. Two days ago I made a post asking for help buying food for our rescued cats. We raised $65, which was only enough for one small bag that ran out the same day (the large bag, which has a much better quantity-to-price ratio, costs $110, and we couldn’t reach that amount).

To keep them from going hungry, we asked for help from someone we know who also rescues cats in a nearby city. She lent us half a bag of food, which they ate yesterday and this morning, and that has now run out as well.

We urgently need to buy at least one $110 bag for today, and also return the one we borrowed (she also feeds dozens of cats and needs it back as soon as possible).

Any help is deeply appreciated. Unfortunately we can’t use wishlists because they aren’t available here in Uruguay, which is why we use PayPal and Venmo. You can see all the receipts in the corresponding link.

Thank you all so much!

Hello everyone. This is Toto, a cat who was abandoned in our area. We know he was abandoned because we know essentially every stray in the neighborhood, since we do TNR and feed them, and he appeared literally overnight.

We immediately noticed he was in very bad shape: dehydrated, with no appetite, and most alarmingly, unable to stand. We rushed him to the vet and he was diagnosed with neurological FIP, so we decided to begin treatment as soon as possible, since without it he almost certainly would not survive.

We managed to get about three leftover doses from someone whose cat had already finished treatment, but we need to buy more today because delivery takes at least a day and the treatment cannot be interrupted. Unfortunately, here in Uruguay it’s not like in the USA where it’s regulated. We have to bring the medication from either Argentina or Brazil, and it’s both complicated and extremely expensive.

Each vial, which due to his weight only lasts about two and a half days, costs around $75.

Please help us save his life. We are overwhelmed with expenses and cannot afford this without help right now, but we know it’s possible to save him (every FIP treatment we’ve done so far has been successful, and all of them survived and are healthy now), and we are going to do everything we can to make that happen. Any help is deeply appreciated and truly makes a difference 🤍

Hello everyone. We urgently need help buying food as soon as possible, since the bags are empty and we have more than 70 rescued cats to feed. The most recent food purchases still haven’t been covered, so the current debt is $425, and each bag costs around $110 and lasts about four days.

Unfortunately we can’t use wishlists because we’re in Uruguay, which is why we use PayPal and Venmo.

Any help is deeply appreciated 🤍 You can see all the receipts in the corresponding link.

As for the updates:

Thanks to the help we previously received, we were able to pay off all veterinary debt up to this point. Thank you all so much! 🤍

As for the relocation, a few days ago we received the keys to the new place and we’re currently working on making it safe for the cats, especially because it’s next to a highway and it would be extremely dangerous if any of them escaped. We’re installing protections on the doors and windows, which of course is very expensive. For now I’m trying to cover those costs myself, but I may eventually need to ask for some help with that as well.

This step is essential before we can begin moving them.

His expression looks like that because he lost almost all the muscle on the right side of his face (left side in the photo), so one of his fangs is always sticking out a little. He was in very bad shape when we rescued him (we didn’t think he would make it), but now he’s healthy, happy, and taking care of the babies ❤️

Thank you so much to everyone who helped us give them the care they needed! You can see more updates about the cats we care for at r/veracathome
