Hello everyone,

This is my cat Caro, she is only 8 months old.
Until recently, she was a very energetic kitten who always wanted to play. That’s why it was so alarming when she suddenly became extremely weak and lethargic.

We immediately went to the veterinarian, where we received heartbreaking news.
Caro’s red blood cells are no longer being produced and are instead breaking down. This makes it harder for her body to transport oxygen. Her red blood cell level is currently at 12, which is considered a critical level. At this stage, the vet strongly recommends a blood transfusion, as this could save her life and potentially allow her to fully recover.

The cause is most likely a bacterial infection, but this cannot be stated with certainty. What is happening is very rare, especially in such a young cat.

Caro is still just a baby and has her whole life ahead of her.
At home, her brother is waiting for her. He keeps searching for Caro and is clearly distressed, which makes this situation even harder for us.

The costs for her treatment and blood transfusion are high, which is why we are asking for help.
Every donation, no matter how small, will go directly toward Caro’s medical care so she can come home and be reunited with her brother.

If you’re unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser would mean the world to us.

Thank you so much for reading, for your kindness, and for supporting Caro 💛
We are incredibly grateful.

With love,
Helena De Kegel
