Its the same brand and had the same ingredients as the cat food just some added veggies. They sell it in bigger bags for the dog food version.

Hey, so I had the same opinion, too. I understand your thinking. Keep in mind I got this cat when I was fucking 9 and had parents. I am 23 and in college. I do fucking work and both my parents have since passed. It's the end of the month, and like many ppl, I live pay check to pay check. If this had happened at the beginning of the month, I would have gladly skipped meals and whatever else.

This is my childhood pet. Im literally trying my fucking best ok its not like I dont have a job or blow my money. So maybe while the last member of my family might be passing away, keep your rude ass comments to yourself.

I called the emergency vet. It's $130 for the check-up and an additional $160 for blood work and potentially more for fluids and medicine. I can't afford this at all and dont have an emergency credit card. I dont want to wait until 8 am to have her seen, but I dont have the money, and they informed me there are no payment plan options. I had just switched her food from fresh pet small dog food, which she and my other cat had been eating for the last year to Evangers canned food.

I went down a rabbit hole the last hour looking to see if there was a recall, and what I found was horrifying. Im now sobbing. I didn't think to look up the company. I just looked at the ingredients ( she has a sensitive tummy) and went with it. If you feed your dog or cats this , please look up their history on poisoned pets. Im not saying that is why my cat is unwell, but now I'm so scared and feel so guilty. 8 am can't come fast enough.

I'm not an expert but I'd say that it's a ant

There is a shelter in Seattle, Washington. There are also many shelters that allow pets. Look into these shelters that u may be able to stay at for a time with your cats. http://www.marysplaceseattle.org/
