I absolutely love the humor of Chrissy Fresca. Today though I heard she's really worried about her cat, Carmela... please share. Thank you...

Hi friends,

My Cat Carmela needs help with care.

She stopped eating and drinking, she was lethargic. I took her to the Vet for a day, then the Vet Hospital for 72 hrs

of care.

I'm so grateful for her feeling better.

She came home with an unexpected

bill of $5,000.00.

I'm reaching out, because I need help paying this bill, and getting

her the ongoing care she needs.

*anything helps and is very much appreciated.

*If you can't help by donating, could

you please SHARE this post?

It would mean the world to me!

Thank you so much,

Chrissy and Carmela
