My cat Marusya
a year ago
Hello, my dear subscribers.
Something has happened that I haven't told you about for a long time. But apparently, the time has come.
Some of you might remember, I wrote a post about my deceased cat Kuzya two years ago: https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/10172345/
We never found out what he was sick with and why he died so quickly. Literally within a couple of days.
However, we had two cats. A boy named Kuzya and a girl named Marusya.
Here their photos:

About a month and a half after Kuzya's death, Marusya started showing the same symptoms as him. As soon as we noticed these symptoms, my mom, brother, and I rushed to the veterinary clinic like a bullet, where they managed to save Marusya by giving her a blood transfusion. I wrote about it in my telegram post:
>This post<
The thing is, for the past two years, we've been trying to save Marusya from this illness. She's still sick.
Every two months, she would get sick, and we would take her to the vet, where the doctors would give her medication and injections. Then she would get better, then bad again. And so on in a circle.
But earlier this February, the vets prescribed her a strange medication for coronavirus. My mom and I were puzzled, and my mom asked me to find acquaintances among the vets in Saint Petersburg, where I currently live, so they could explain why Marusya needed this medication.
I found a girl who works there. She asked for photos of the test results and photos of the papers with the prescribed treatment for Marusya. This girl was shocked.
In short, for these past two years, they've been sucking money from us and not even treating Marusya, not trying to figure out what she's sick with, and prescribing medications offhandedly.
I spent a month and a half persuading my mom to transfer Marusya to Saint Petersburg, but my mom agreed only when Marusya was already dying.
But fortunately, the doctors in Saint Petersburg managed to help the cat. They gave Marusya a blood transfusion.
However, the doctors need time to find out what she's sick with. Marusya suffers from some form of anemia. But which one? It's still unknown because blood needs to be taken for analysis. But when Marusya arrived in Saint Petersburg, she had a critically low amount of blood. And if more blood had been taken, she could have suffocated due to lack of oxygen. (Something in her body destroys red blood cells).
I took a photo of Marusya during the procedure:

Now we have to wait two weeks for her new blood to be absorbed into her body, then we can take enough blood for analysis. For now, I have to give her injections and medication every 12 hours according to the schedule to keep her in a stable condition without sharp declines in health.
I talked to the doctors about the price. They said they couldn't say exactly how much it would cost. Because first, we need to establish the exact diagnosis, then prescribe treatment and therapy, then the price will be known.
And I'm confused. Our family can't lose another beloved pet. Marusya is the only living reminder of Kuzya. We saw them as father and daughter because they are similar, although they are not related, and we found both of them on the street. We found Kuzya as a kitten when I was 10, and we found Marusya when I was already 21.
Recently, you may remember, I took two commissions. Here's the post: https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/10825515/
I wrote on my Patreon that I'm taking these commissions to pay for Marusya's flight and her treatment.
However, doctor's examinations, a flight to another city, new medications, and a blood transfusion turned out to be much more expensive. I've almost spent all my money. And I can't take new commissions anymore. I'm already overwhelmed. I draw every day from morning till evening. If I take more commissions, customers will have to wait from 4 to 7 months for their orders. Current customers have already been waiting for about two months.
I'm just desperate. Friends advised me to raise funds for Marusya's future treatment. How much do I need? I don't know either. Doctors said it could be from $800 to $3000, or maybe more. Why such a range? Because there is no exact diagnosis yet, only speculations.
Should I take more commissions? I can't, because my customers are already waiting long, and they are already asking how soon it will be ready.
But it's also hard for me to organize fundraising because I will definitely face negativity towards me. I'm a very sensitive person, and any negativity throws me into depression.
I talked to friends and several of my subscribers for about a week. They are pushing me to raise funds.
It's very hard for me to ask for this, but I do it for Marusya. I love her with all my heart. She's my favorite bundle of nerves. (We call her that because she's very nervous by nature).
If anyone can afford to donate to me for Marusya's treatment, I will be very, very grateful. You will help me pay for her treatment and finally cure her.
Currently, I'm using EasyStart.

Once again, thank you so much to those who will help. And thank you very much for understanding.
P.S
While I was writing this post, I found an old photo of Marusya before her illness and compared it with today. It's like they are two different cats. Shit! I'm in so much pain.

The instructions on how to use EasyShare don't seem to be a valid format.
We lost our family cat, Dyzio, very suddenly last year from a blood clot, so sadly I can understand some of the feelings you're going through.
Hopefully the doctor can figure out what's wrong with her and get her the help she needs - Marusya really is a pretty cat! And hopefully I can pitch in something as well; if not for your cat, then at the very least for your continuous work and always great artwork.
I really appreciate it
I know what you are dealing with though, I have a special boy right now that I love a lot who is dying of IMHA (immune mediated hemolytic anemia), which is what it sounds like your baby is dealing with, too. We've done everything we can and at this very moment, I am calling local vets about at home euthanasia... So I hope you are able to get her the treatment she needs and that she can continue to live healthily!!
Thanks a lot!
I have wanted something from you for a long time, but it seems like the only way to get something is be a patron and get very lucky because the projects are so large and infrequent.
They are poisonous to cats.
I know I have heard so many stories of people not knowing that those flowers will harm there cat.
