I have Pancreatitis, I was hospitalized and can’t afford to get medical attention, now I’m starting to show early signs of liver failure.
this is a really hard post to write.
so my friend ana is really sick and there are signs that it could get worse. she needs to raise money for her medical bills so she can get more help. the prizes offered are all really great. her and her brother and matt all make really awesome art, and the zine package will have my second zine in it also. probably a bunch of better zines too. anyway.
ana and i met five years ago doing tables at fucking warped tour (beginning a solid trend of me meeting cool friends in terrible ways) and she convinced me she had a ridiculous phone number that contained both 420 and 666. we danced to tacky-ass warped tour bands and she didn’t believe me that i was half-Black so i called my dad and had him verify. it was silly and weird and one of those days that could have been so forgettable under most circumstances.
we became penpals/emailpals for a super long time and the same atmosphere existed there as it did at warped tour. we’d talk about lord of the rings and racism and all the while it took months for her to tell me how to spell her first name. our emails would be titled things like “my record player needs a break from me” and “red tea makes babies puke”. it was an odd friendship but a good one.
our paths didn’t cross again until september 2011. i remember being so nervous because it seemed so improbable that we’d be able to cover all the ground in real life that we had in email but we did and it was so fucking awesome. she also (i don’t know if she knows this) really helped me in dealing with mitch’s death. she offered me a perspective on how to approach death/life that i hadn’t been able to consider at that point at all because i was caught up in my grief.
our communication had been sparse for a while but it never changed how i felt. she said it best in an email in november: “this may seem silly, but you are the kind of friend who pops up into my head every once in a while and every time that happens I say to myself that I should write to you but reality catches up to me and I get caught up with being busy and I don’t. So here it is, so saying fuck it to being busy and caring more about friendships… [ed: some other shit about life etc] Anyway, I hope you are ok, actually more than ok I hope life is amazing for you. I look forward to hearing from you, I’ve always have and I’ll always will”.
ana is an awesome person, a great friend, and i don’t like the thought of her dying because our country has a fucked-up medical system. i don’t like the thought of her dying period . anything you could donate to help her out would be appreciated, and if you can’t donate maybe just reblog. thanks a bunch.

NEW and URGENT! Please reblog so that we can help save Tiger. She is currently staying at the vet’s and being monitored. Thank you!
Tiger began acting strangely a couple days ago. Her owner came home from running errands and noticed she wasn’t eating or drinking, and was urinating on herself. The next day, a large lump had seemingly formed on her side. Tiger was taken to the vet and they did xrays which show that all her internal organs had shifted over to one side of her body. The vet says this was caused by a very severe hernia that basically pushed them over. Tiger will need a surgery to go in and correct the hernia and re-position the organs to normal. She is currently staying at the vet where they are monitoring her vitals, behavior and giving her fluids. Please help her by sharing and/or donating so that she can get this surgery ASAP.

Help save Lunchbox the cat (pictured above)!
The story (from Lunchbox’s parents/my good friends):
For a couple of years, now, our cat Lunchbox has had a rare nerve sheath sarcoma near the base of her tail. We’ve had it removed several times, but it’s so close to the base of her tail that getting wide margins has been very difficult, and it’s come back. We’ve been saving to get her tail removed, as the surgeon says the surgery will almost definitely be curative. We were on our way to having the money to get the surgery done, but the tumor has starting growing fast, and our window to get the surgery done is closing. We need your help!
Lunchbox is a little, yelly calico, who is spry and active and extremely healthy apart from the sarcoma, so this tail removal will allow us a number of extra years with her. She’s like our child. We love her dearly and want to spend as many years as possible with her, watching her run around the house yelling and burrowing under the covers to snuggle with us. She’s the closest thing we have to a child. Your help is greatly appreciated.
Donate here:http://fundly.com/help-us-save-our-cat-lunchbox
These are my dear friends, folks. They are two of the most caring, loving, acceptable, and awesome folks that I know. Please help them save their loved one, Lunchbox. Every single dollar helps get them closer to their goal. If you cannot donate, please spread the word. Thank you.

Ginger Mae needs help with the rising costs of her medical care!
In April of 2010, I lost my feline companion of nearly ten years, Nikko, to untreatable liver cancer. It completely devastated me. Once I was able to recover from that horrible loss, I found a humble ad on Petfinder describing a calico cat who was in need of a home. My remaining cat, Lana, needed a new companion and I too fell in love with her image and her personality as it was written out. As such, I adopted Ginger Mae on May 8th, 2010 from a local rescue called Animal Angels ran by an amazing woman named Suzanne. Since then, Ginger has been both a constant companion and a source of amusement in my life. She has never been normal and I’d never pray for her to be.
It’s now March 2013 and I’m not ready to lose another cat, especially not Ginger Mae.
Earlier this week (March 11th or so), Ginger started to not feel herself. She became lethargic, distant and started showing the signs of anemia along with pain. She was taken to the vet and through bloodwork and x-rays, it has been determined that her metabolic levels are off, her spleen has done some traveling in her body cavity, and that she has some sort of mass pushing her intestines to the side. We are not sure what any of that means yet, and we’re already at a pretty hefty bill. And we’re probably going to have to tag another $400 onto it for an ultrasound and then possibly also the cost of surgery.
I’m a full time college student who is lucky to get forty hours a month at my PT job. I have little of value. When we took her to the vet, I figured that the costs would probably be much lower than what they’ve turned out to be even now. But I’m terrified about the possibility of losing Ginger, too, and what that would mean for both me and my other animals. She is a service animal for me, a companion for Lana, and a surrogate mother for a kitten I took in last year who was dumped on a freeway. She’s vastly important to my family and to me, and I want to be able to bring her home.
All the funds raised on this indiegogo will go towards her care. Anything above and beyond the cost of her care will be donated directly to Animal Angels and Suzanne, the woman who introduced me to her. It will go towards the care of other felines at the rescue, helping them get the care they need in order to get adopted into forever homes of their own. Because while Ginger got a home, and needs help now, there’s always other animals who need the same. So you’re not just helping her, but all of them.
Anything is appreciated and with your help Ginger will get her heath back along with a plethora of pets from people who have supported her through this journey.
Please, please, please promote this. I need all the help I can get.
Signal boosting for this sweet kitty! Please spread the word and help if you can!

We are two vegan animal rights activists in Adelaide who started out baking for select animal charities to help fund raise! We want to start our own vegan catering business and hopefully grow into a vegan cafe, the only problem we have is not having the money to do so!
We want to donate some of our profits to animal charities and raise awareness about the dairy/egg industries and to promote a healthy vegan lifestyle.
What is in the picture is past photos of baking we have done for fundraising, of course becoming a catering business we plan to expand beyond cakes/sweets and hopefully also into raw foods/convenience foods/mock meats.
We have the dream, all we need is some money to get us started! :)
We are in the process of getting recipes/techniques down pat and will both have completed our certificate IV in small business management and be ready to set up around June.
Your kind donation could help kickstart our business and make it a real success!
Thank you so much for even looking at this page, and if you donated, words can not express our gratitude, even if it was a small donation. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
The animals thank you too, don’t ever stop trying to change the world!
please if you have any spare money or want to help out, go to THIS LINK or even reblog this post, it would mean the world! Thank you so much, for even reading this.

My amazing animator friend Kaukab has been caring for a feral cat colony in New Jersey for the last few years. These are cats trying to cope with living in highly urbanized areas and struggle to do so. Many of them are abandoned by their owners and need human care to survive.
She and her husband Juniad have been ever so vigilant making sure these poor cats are safe and sound. She’s fed them, given them medical attention and even gave them shelter from terrible weather conditions, including Hurricane Sandy. She’s done this all on her own time and on her own dime, all the while attending school and making a living as an animator. She’s passionate about these animals and goes out of her way to make sure they’re safe.
But now she and her husband are moving away and they can no longer care for these cats. They’ve searched for new caretakers for them, and even scouted for farms in the surrounding states that would take them on their property, but to no avail. Her neighbors have given her no sympathy or support since Day One, and given the opportunity they’d have these cats taken to a kill shelter, so it’s up to her friends to give her a hand.
She found a feral cat sanctuary that is willing to take these cats, but for $350 a pop. She has 10 cats, so that’s $3,500 she needs to raise by the end of the month! And there’s some really great perks if you donate: amazing artwork from some of the most wonderfully talented animators in the business!
Here’s the link to her IndieGoGo campaign: http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/feral-cat-colony-sanctuary-relocation-project
I know there’s a bunch of you out there who would be willing to donate a few dollars to her cause. Every little bit helps, so spread the word along!
Hey, I know there’s some animal-lovers out of the 100,000 of you that follow this blog, so spread the word and give a hand to my good friend Kaukab! She needs all the help she could get!
I was able to help because I got my tax return, and because I know how heartbreaking it is to do this. When we left Indiana, we left our impromptu-house-run animal rescue behind, and I shudder to think of how out of control the feral cat/dog probably is now. I hope they can raise some funds.

Tumblr, I come begging for help. I’m at my end and I really don’t know how I’ll be able to do this.
This is my dog, Jin. He’s a 2 year old shih-tzu and the absolute love of my life. This morning when we woke up, Jin was having problems walking, and his back was tensed up pretty badly. I took him to the vet to get looked at, and the vet told me that a few things could possibly be up with him. He may have twisted something from jumping off the bed or couch, or had a pinched nerve. He went into further detail and told me that if it ended up being a pinched nerve, it was something that should be treated as quickly as possible, because it could lead to a ruptured disc in the back, and cause the dog to be unable to walk (he’d drag his back legs instead.) He also said that it can go from a pinched nerve to a ruptured disc very quickly. He gave him a shot of a steroid to ease the pain, put him on some pain meds, and we were on our way. I brought him back home, and he seemed to be a bit wobbly, which I assumed was from the medication, so we went out grocery shopping.
Upon coming home, he was waiting at the top of the stairs for us, as he normally does when he hears the car pull up. But he doesn’t move from his spot. Then he tries to start walking, and isn’t using his back legs at all. He’s now dragging his feet. I want to get my dog treated and get him the surgery he so desperately needs now, but my budget doesn’t have a place for the cost the doctor told me. I was told the surgery would be over 4000 dollars to get it taken care of. I cannot bear to lose my dog. He’s one of the most mild tempered pets I have ever owned, and is great around people.
So Tumblr, this is where I come to you. The Homestucks, the Cosplayers, the anime fans, the fitspo crowd, the Bronies, and every other crowd I have ever been a part of. I want to help my dog. I can’t bear to get him put down.
I just cannot come up with 4000 dollars in the financial situation I’m in, and the money I am making. I come to you for help, whether it be 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, or any dollar amount you can spare. You will be helping a wonderfully loving dog live the life he truly deserves, and not suffer like he is. My fiance and I will be eternally grateful for any help you can provide. My Paypal account is hh269604@ohio.edu.
Thank you for reading this. Please reblog and signal boost this as much as you can.

Mr. Teeks is an orange 7-year old domestic tabby. I’ve had him since he was 8 weeks old. His favourite things are sleeping on your face, playing fetch with rubber balls, and purring ecstatically. He often acts as a cat-parrot and sits on your shoulder while you watch television.
Mr. Teeks is suffering from something known as Horner’s Syndrome. It is partial facial paralysis caused by compression of a nerve in the brain. In cats, there is almost always an underlying cause. Mr. Teeks has a chronic sneeze. His sinuses have become infected, and this could be a cause. He is on a 4-week run of antibiotics, but needs more diagnostic tests.
I’ve recently had to quit my job and to get into school, and am not getting student loans. I have $23 in my bank account and a maxed-out credit card. I have no way of helping my cat.
I am not ready to sit back and watch my cat slowly die. Any help would be appreciated! Even a donation of $1 will be able to help Mr. Teeks!
[Mr. Teeks Fundraiser]
Hi, everyone. For those of you who’ve been with me since the beginning, you know I’ve never asked for anything. My dear friend has a lovely feline who is in dire need of life-saving surgery, but as you’ve read, she doesn’t have the funds to get him through.
I’ve donated what I’ve can. Her family’s put together whatever they could. But this fundraiser is only 61% funded and she has 3 days to go.
If you can spare even $1, that would be amazing. If you can’t spare anything, even a reblog would be wonderful.
I don’t know if this will work.

QUICKLY STOP EVERYTHING THAT YOU ARE DOING AT THE PRESENT MOMENT AND TAKE A SECOND TO READ THIS:
This cat here is Morris, he is a 10 year old happy, playful, cuddling orange tabby. He has been living in an animal shelter for over 180 days. I have only just met Morris today (18/01/13 for date reference) but I have fallen absolutely in love with him. However, Morris has a condition with his eyes where his eyelashes grow inward, causing him excruciating pain. Due to this, he was operated on to try and fix the problem, but the operation they performed didn’t work. This leaves Morris forced to take eye drops constantly, and will need to have another operation or after time, he will go blind.
I tried to adopt Morris. Morris is sponsored meaning his entire adoption fee (normally $55) is completely covered. Morris is a free cat. The problem with this is that Morris requires another operation to save his sight and to keep him from being in pain all the time. The people at the adoption center knew that my financial situation wasn’t reliable enough to provide him that second operation. So that is where you guys come in, Tumblr
I have seen several posts and have donated to a few causes to help people in bad situations. I know this isn’t exactly my situation, but I want to make it my situation. This cat is 10 years old and in a shelter. He doesn’t even have a real home or family. In the time that I was there at the shelter, he did not leave my lap when I sat down. The only time he moved was to adjust for better petting arrangements. People say sometimes your pets pick you, and I really think he picked me. If I could just raise money to donate him, I’ve been researching what kind of price estimates will be on his treatments, but it looks upwards into 1,000. But he’s worth it in my eyes.
Unfortunately, I work at gamestop for 7.41/hr. I can’t raise 1,000 dollars soon enough to be able to take him home from the shelter and make sure he knows he is loved and care for. I want to rescue him as soon as possible and let him live out his last few years knowing that he is loved and that I would do anything to help him. Even if I can’t raise the money, I’ve been trying to spread the word about him, just in case someone will adopt him. If someone else adopts him before I can raise enough money, I will make sure anything raised will go to him.
Even if you don’t want to donate to help Morris, please just reblog the message! I hope to at least be able to do something for him other than visit him at the shelter, knowing I can’t even bring him home when I go. (Morris is located at the Bloomington Animal Shelter in Indiana. It’s on Walnut Street if you wanted to look them up.)
Please, please spread the word! Anything helps!

EDIT: (January 22, 2013) THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO REBLOGGED, LIKED, AND DONATED! THE GOAL HAS NOT ONLY BEEN MET, BUT NEARLY TRIPLED! THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYONE!! The money will be used to get Morris his treatment as well as other shelter pets who would otherwise find themselves in his position. Thank you all for your support and your kind words. I am picking Morris up from the shelter tomorrow to take him home with me, and there will be photos and videos on my tumblr if you guys wish to see him. He will see a bet on Friday to discuss opthamology. I just want all of you to know that you are all beautiful and wonderful in every way, and that I know you would all do the same if you were me. Thank you for allowing me to make this miracle happen for Morris. This is beyond anything I thought humanity could care to achieve. I will try to make a vlog thanking each and every one of you. (and a lot of Morris!) So, please, do not feel obligated to donate unless you want your money to go toward any of Morris’ future vet visits/medications and other shelter animals. (I will be donating some of the donation money to another cat at the shelter named Katie who will most likely also become blind.) THANK YOU SO MUCH EVERYONE!! You are all heroes to me, and I will never find the words to explain how deeply I love you all.

So if you’ve heard anything about my cat Sammy Chaos in the past 4 months it’s probably been about him being in and out of the vet every month. This past time the vet told me he is going to need a Perineal Urethrostomy, a surgery I can’t afford and the only alternative would be paying hundreds of dollars every month to unblock his urinary track(another alternative I can’t afford) or to euthanize him. I’ve tried a lot of the alternatives to surgery(meds and food) but this is looking like his only option. It would really mean a lot to me if anyone could help out even a little bit with getting him the surgery. I love him a lot and really want to give him the chance to live a full healthy life past 2. If you could give $5, $10, whatever to his Chip-in I would appreciate it also sharing this would really help too♥ http://sammychaossurgery.chipin.com/sammy-chaos-surgery

Mojave Desert Animal Rescue robbed twice over the weekend, because people are terrible
vegansaurus:
Mojave Desert Animal Rescue is a wonderful and necessary nonprofit that helps out homeless people with pets. They register needy people’s animals (collecting spay/neuter and vaccination information), and provide food for them. They also provide emergency supplies for homeless people who can’t stay at shelters because they have pets. And over the weekend, some horrible, heartless jerks robbed MDAR’s warehouse twice.
The thieves took almost everything in the warehouse, including “canned food, both for human consumption and for pets, veterinary supplies, jackets, coats, socks,” and they tried to take a backhoe. MDAR founder and Director Annie Lancaster told the San Bernadino Sun
You can tell they just threw things across the room and just completely trashed the place. … I mean who does that? We had signs in there that clearly said we were a charity and there were pictures of the homeless people we’ve helped and their pets and they still had the heart to do something like this? I just don’t understand.
It’s winter in the high desert. People are the WORST.
You can donate here to help out MDAR. Read more about this gross crime at the Sun.
