Help Mr. Franklin J. Kittycat get back on his feet

Donation protected
Hey, I'm Eljay and that sweet and sleepy man above is Frank! He's been my constant companion for more than 15 years now, and I love him so very much.




Over the last year he's been showing signs of his age. The vets noticed a growth in his abdomen about two months ago. After extensive tests it's still unclear if it's some kind of inflammatory condition, lymphoma, a non-lymphoma tumor, or something else.

He's still a curious kitty who likes to snuggle and demands wet food on a strict schedule, and his quality of life is good, so despite his age the vets think that with surgery to biopsy and possibly remove the mass, I'll get a few more years yet out of him.

The problem is that my own abdominal surgery, combined with plumbing issues in my house, have wiped out my savings over the last year and put me into some debt. (Don't think I've not been making jokes about how no-ones pipes are safe in this house.)

I do have pet insurance to cover some of this, and CareCredit has extended me a pretty solid line of credit, but given the existing debt it'd be a struggle. This first goal should cover the following:
1) His surgery and recovery time in the kitty ICU afterwards
2) Some of the diagnostic stuff from previous visits.
3) Pain meds and prescriptions both now and after surgery.

If by some miracle I go over, the money will go towards my existing vet bills and CareCredit debt, as well as future care for Frank.

Please help my little man get better if you have something to spare. I'll also be setting up a lot of my art and work to sell, and all proceeds will go right to him.

Thank you for helping keep him in my life just a few more years.
