THANK YOU SO MUCH!! ;;

Look for a low cost clinic in your area. Also have you considered a care card?

all veterinarians in my area require full payment after the visit is done.

That is ridiculous...Look into a applying for a care card I think you have a certain amount of time to pay them off before interest kicks in.

I second care credit. Got my dog 4k knee surgery using it. Start the process now. If you have a good relationship with a vet, you can pay some in advance and let them know your care credit is on the way.

Is there any blood in his stool or urine? What does the vomit look like? Has he been eating and drinking normally? What kind of food is he on? Does he get wet food at all? Does he get filtered water or tap water?

As for the lumps/masses, how do they feel when you push on them? Hard? Squishy? Does your cat look like he's in pain when you do this?

Throwing up could be a sign of pain. His pancreas could be acting up depending on his age, but the most common issue in cats is the kidneys and urinary tract. If you can, go to a local independent pet food store and see if they have any Honest Kitchen Gastrointestinal Support or Goat Milk. They also have a bone broth with turmeric that can help reduce inflammation.

Chances are though, he will need x-rays, a blood test, and a urinalysis ASAP.

Apply for care credit ASAP and good luck.

I donated what I could. I hope you get what you need. Please feel free to reach out to me if need be, and please keep us updated.

I dont know about his urine but he seems to be functioning relatively normally in bowels and stuff. He vomit is mostly just his food. Just like ground up food chunks. He never gets wet food and has friskers food. He drinks tap water but his bowl is cleaned daily.

The lumps in her groin are relatively hard. The are lumpy and bumpy toward the ends and the middles are smooth but hard. When i touch them the cat doesnt mind too much but after like a minute or 2 he tries to get away. He is less than a year old so im worried. Also there is no veterinarians in my town that take care credit... My mom tried with her dog.

May I ask where you live??

Northwest ohio. My town only has 2 veterinarians

Hmmm no near by towns you can call around in??

Based on your description of the lumps in her groin, it sounds like swollen lymph nodes. Could be an infection. Esp neare her groin she may have trouble pooping, but more commonly you'll see nausea as a symptom and that's why she's throwing up.

She will definitely need to see a vet. At a year old the chances that it's cancer are fairly slim, but they may want to aspirate the masses to check. If you have a good vet, though,t hey probably won't need to.

Has she been tested for FIV or Feline Leukemia? Is she an indoor only cat, or does she go outisde? Fleas and ticks can transmit infections that a cat with a poor immune systtem may have trouble fending off.

My suggestion for long term health would be to switch her to a higher quality food where more of the protein comes from meat. Depending on the stores in your area, I have a few suggestions (not sure where you're located) but the three big things I tell my clients:

1. High quality kibble, high in protein. (Blue Buffalo Wilderness, Holistic Select, Acana, Orijen, Horizon Legacy, Natural Balance Wild Pursuit, Canidae Pure, or Nature's Variety)
2. Be sure to include wet food in the diet. This can be done via a small amount of rehydrated Honest Kitchen daily, or a number of different cat food brands such as Almo Nature, Merrick Backcountry, Blue Buffalo Wilderness, Tiki Cat, BFF, Natural Balance, Wellness Core, Holistic Select, or Pride by Nature's Variety.)
3. Filtered water. There are a lot of contaminants in our water that can lead to build up and blockage of the kidneys and urinary tract. Filtered water is the safest way to go.

As for this immediate situation, my first suggestions besides managing to get to the vet and get an antibiotic for the infection is to introduce a multi-vitamin into his diet for about 2 weeks. Depending on the food you decide on (let me know if you want more info on all of them), you may or may not consider a short-term gastrointestinal supplement.

Health starts in the gut. Not everything can be solved by natural remedies and the like, but a lot of medical conditions can be prevented by choosing a high-quality food. Healthy gut means healthy body.

Be prepared for the following with the vet, depending on their level of familiarity with the issue:
Aspiration of masses (for biopsy purposes)
Urinalysis
Review of vaccinations and a possible test for FIV and FeLV
A full blood panel
Ultrasound of the groin and abdomen area
Allergy tests

I don't want to alarm you, but the bills can get hefty. If you have the credit, try to get a new credit card for hte short-term. At the very least, make a regular appointment with a vet you don't know well but seems pretty nice. Explain the throwing up and the weird lumps and be like "I don't know what to do". Sometimes they'll allow you to make payments for special cases. It's worth a shot.

In the meantime monitor his food and water intake, keep an eye on his stool, and check the lumps several times a day for any changes.

Yeah I'm gonna apply for a credit card and in the mean time try to scrape together as much money as I can. That way hopefully I can maybe convince them to do a payment plan by offering to pay a large majority that day

I hope your kitty gets well soon.

I'd be into doing a two character painted piece with background
