[quote:spirals:MV8yMzQwNzI5XzQwMDAyMTAyXzI0NDc0QTcz] why did u wait?. there are 24 hour places around....this was posted on sunday! as i said i made an offer to pay. i've helped people before, people have helped me... as other posters have said fleas will make a cat not eat or drink ... that just happened to a friend of mine, cat was just lying still....not eating or drinking and had lost weight.....he thought after the kitty was going to the vet (his family took him) he'd never see him again and he is fine now! he is allergic to fleas (severe allergic dermatitis - he is white and they saw no fleas) and also hyperthyroid so the fleas bothered him more than the other cats. the fleas came into the home from superstorm sandy. also the fleas can cause anemia from biting so much - even in adult cats....this kitty is 17 and sprung right back to life after proper treatment. you had help which you refused. some vets would also treat the cat and adopt out. i suggest you not get another animal until you are willing to take the help of others in SAVING your companion animals life. i am sorry Moe lost her young life. i am sure you loved her, but have too much pride (to accept money) or immaturity or something to do what would have been best for her. you came here for help, had offers, and only did the easiest thing for yourself. i just do not understand.

I want to put her down but it will cost $50. I frankly don't have the money. I'm unemployed, not receiving benefits and my limited savings is gone.
I was just gonna use a .22 pistol and end it for her quickly but it turns out to be a felony where I live to knowingly kill a pet animal (I think farmers are exempt). Even if considered a mercy to the animal. She's slowly starving to death in front of my eyes, seriously it's messed up.
I've tried different soft foods, pet treats. She just won't eat. She's only 9 years old.
This sucks!
