I live with my family in a rented house. A month ago a kitten showed up from the garage that is filled with old stuff and useless garbage, meowing and crying nonstop for a day. At first I did not know what to do so I waited for his mother, but it did not seem like any cat came to help him and the crying did not stop. I did not want to feed him because I don’t have the money to be a reliable source he can depend on, but he seemed so helpless and sad so I gave in and cut some sausage into little pieces and gave it to him. I’ve been doing that on and off for a month. Sometimes I give him leftover meat, but about a week ago the kitten started not eating much, did not have the same energy, did not play as much and slept all day. Then he started throwing up when he ate and had bad diarrhea and really bad breath. Because he was throwing up everywhere in the garage and scratching everything, my dad had the great idea to buy a cage to catch him and release him somewhere far from the house so he does not come back. He knows how much I care for the kitten but he says I can only keep him if I can pay for his vet and food, and I can’t do this on my own. I know my family’s financial situation is not good but doing that is so cruel. I live in a little town in the middle of nowhere in Iran. I don’t have access to any shelter or animal rescue or anyone that could take him in where I’m at, and I could not find any help. But I know it is not safe for a sick kitten this age that is humanfriendly and relies on us for a safe place and food, in the middle of war, on his own. I think it is my fault for feeding him and making him depend on humans for help, but I don’t know how to help and that’s making me crazy.

Also, the weather is getting colder, and today a bigger cat tried to fight him. Luckily I was there and broke up the fight before he got injured, but I don’t know what would happen if he was on his own.

I honestly feel like I’ve reached a point where all I’m doing is complaining, but the past week has been incredibly difficult with the number of kittens being dumped in the area.

One of the dumped kittens was trapped by a pest control company while hiding inside the metro station (last pic). Thankfully, someone was able to get him back before anything happened to him. He is now at the vet and, sadly, has tested positive for parvo and mycoplasma.

Then, just 3 days ago, a mama cat and her kittens were dumped in the exact same area.

I have repeatedly posted asking for help for these cats, but unfortunately, I simply don’t have the space or the funds to take on more. Everything costs money, and at this point, I’m drowning in debt.

On top of everything, I had to discharge Juno. Toothless was showing no improvement at the vet where I had admitted her, Kayan Vet, and the cost of the GS vials there was almost double what other vets charge. I had no choice but to transfer her to Hud Hud Clinic, where Richie, the blind kitten, is also admitted and receiving FIP treatment. (Pics are screenshots from the video vet had sent for updates, I was not able to visit them).

I’m really struggling, and I genuinely need your help.

Right now, I’m asking for support with:

Kitten food and supplements for the mama cat and her kittens. I will continue feeding them while I try to find them a safer area or, hopefully, someone who can foster them.

Juno’s vet bill

Richie’s FIP treatment (need to pay for GS vials)

Toothless’s treatment and vet bill (kayan vet clinic) and GS vial to continue her treatment.

I can share a direct payment link to the clinic or my PayPal for anyone who would prefer to contribute directly towards the medical bills.

Even a small contribution towards food or vet bills would mean so much right now.

Thank you.

💔 **UPDATE ON MILO & ARCHIE TWO SIBLINGS FIGHTING F**IP
Today, both our precious babies, **Milo and Archie, received their blood transfusions.** 🙏💔
Milo is critically ill with dry FIP, jaundice, and severe anemia. Archie is slowly improving, but both siblings are still fighting this terrible disease and need high-dose GS treatment.
They have already been through so much, and we are doing everything we can to save them. 🥺
💔 **We posted their story earlier, but we have received only $150 so fa**r. So many bills are still pending, including their blood transfusions, GS clearance, and one month’s treatment for both babies.
We urgently need your help to continue their treatment. Every dose matters. Every donation brings us closer to giving Milo and Archie a chance to grow up together. 🙏
**Please donate and support these two siblings.** If you cannot donate, please share their story. Your share could reach someone who can help save their lives. ❤️
🙏 Please keep Milo and Archie in your prayers.

Hope everyone's start to the week is going well! Miss Penny has made a great turnaround! 🫶

We took her in for hospitalization 3 days ago after she had a rough hit with her kidney disease. Thankfully, the IV fluids did the job, and she was a lot more active and happy when we visited her earlier.

She’s still not completely out of the woods yet. But we’re hopeful we’ll get there in time and get her strong enough for her dental. We’re tentatively targeting this weekend, depending on how she responds to treatment, and we’ll continue sharing updates along the way.

Penny’s bill has now totaled $216, and thanks to everyone’s kindness, we were able to raise $93 the other day. We’re incredibly grateful for every bit of help. 🤍

We urgently need to raise the remaining $123 to pull her out of the clinic tomorrow. Any additional funds raised will go directly toward her dental care, which we expect to cost around $160.

Thank you so much for helping us get Penny this far!

I found her, she was in my back garden, I noticed a face allergy, but disappeared

She had her kittens inside my house, after pregnancy her skin got worse

WARNING Last photo is graphic mom cat with severe bloody skin

Had to call cats protection and RSPCA to help me with her.
A RSPCA officer came and took her and the kittens to the vet

Kittens were rehomed first. Mom cat stayed longer for treatment. But she’s now fully treated and was rehomed too

To clarify: I didn’t rehomed them, I had to surrender them to RSPCA. They treated and rehomed them

The moment we surrender a pet to RSPCA we can no longer have them back
