REQUEST Help needed for vet care
Hi,
I’ve never done this before but I’m desperate at this point. I’ve been out of work since August on short term disability and I’m supposed to get 70% pay on it. But there’s been delays in paperwork and filing so I’ve only gotten one paycheck since I went on disability and it doesn’t look like I’m getting paid again till the end of the month.
My kitten just broke out in some type of reaction all over his head and ears and mouth and I’ve maxed out my savings trying to cover everything since I went out. I thought I’d be paid today but I didn’t receive anything. I’m scared he’s allergic to something but I don’t have any money to pay for the vet. I tried looking into cash advances or temporary lines of credit but because of the gaps in my paychecks I can’t get approved for anything. This is my last resort. It shouldn’t be more than 200 max for his vet visit, he just got his one year shots a few weeks ago but he hasn’t had the booster yet.
