Aiko and Einstein’s families are desperately seeking financial help for the cost of their beloved furbabies urgent veterinary care.
Aiko, a beautiful snowshoe kitty from Texas has a tumor on her back right paw pad. This tumor, which has been rapidly growing since April, has caused Aiko significant discomfort, making it difficult for her to bear weight on her affected foot. The distressing symptoms, including bleeding when using the litter box, point to the seriousness of the situation.
A needle aspirate sample revealed cancer cells were present but luckily the x-rays showed the cancer is localized to the toe bean and has not spread. This news offers a ray of hope in an otherwise difficult situation. To ensure Aiko's well-being and quality of life, her veterinarian has recommended amputating the affected toe bean. While this procedure is crucial for Aiko's health and future, the financial burden it presents is a significant obstacle. With estimated costs ranging between $1721.75 - $1807.53, Aiko's mom, who is low-income struggles to keep up with the rising cost of living expenses, and she maxed out her care credit account for diagnostic tests.
Aiko holds a special place in her mom's heart, having been a cherished gift from her grandparents.

Aiko, now 10 years old, will continue to enjoy a long and good quality of life once the tumor is removed.
