It was fine then the company was sold off (had no idea) and a year later had issues. The dog/cat food is a total shit show far as I can tell.

She has been sitting in the tub or sink with the faucet running. Whether she drank or not, I do not know for certain. I think she did drink some, but can't be sure.

I might be able to take her to the emergency vet in Louisville, but I cannot afford them. Last time I went was over $1200 and that was a short visit. Samantha may have to be there a while since she has lost so much weight.

There are a lot of feline diseases with these symptoms. I had a cat that developed leukemia that would not eat or drink and got incredibly skinny. Sadly, he got out of the house and was never seen again.

You might qualify for financial pet vet expenses.

We used this company when Loki needed surgery. Easy application process, immediate approval. Lots of veterinarians accept their payment. Not sure if this is what Todd was talking about, but it might be an option for you.

Samantha is at the vet. Instead of making an appointment, Kerry took her in so they will see how bad she is and not demand an appointment.

Yeah, well, she didn't make it. She is now buried in the back yard with 2 other cats and a kitten.
