Hello, fellow listographer. I've never done this before, but I need your help caring for a little girl cat called Tico-Tico. She's not mine, she's my friend's and she's in the ICU right now fighting for her little life. Vet care in Brazil (like in most countries) can be astronomically expensive, and right now she needs a blood transfusion that costs U$270 (roughly R$1500), which is literally a month's salary here.

If you wanna know more about Tico Tico and her situation, check this post. If you can donate any amount whatsoever, you can do so via Wise or PayPal.

No amount is too small! BUT. Please don't feel pressured or compromise your personal finances if you're on a tight budget yourself. I'll be posting updates about Tico-Tico on the blog, my status.café and on this list.
