Yesssssssssss ... i think I may have just reevaluate the direction on my life goals, after watching this.

These performers are so gosh danged talented! The 4 legged ones as well as their hoomans...

I mean, it feels like a win to my whenever I can train one of my cats to not p**p in the big, empty litterbox in the people bathroom.... ( seriously, though...That happens often enough that the metaphor "like chasing cat turds down the shower drain" is used with way too much frequency in my household!)

..Remember back when "the dog ate my homework" was just an excuse for not getting it done?
Well, as an adult, do you think "the cats ate the dog who ate my homework" would fly as a valid excuse for a late project, if I attached this video to it? 😆 🤣
.Ya know, i had almost forgotten that, when you paste something into your windows cmd prompt, on accident, you have to backspace past every. single. letter. i.n.d.i.v.i.d.u.aal.l.y...
for a long accidental text block...from, let's say, a whole news article you copied to send to your spouse later? The cats wanted to remind me that it can, and does, take a full 3-4 minutes to remove aaaaall that text that it only took a cat 0.3-4 milliseconds to paste in the window on accident in the first place...

"Accidentally" in the same way that every object on a table "accidentally" winds up on the floor overnight...

I love these babies so much, lol!

PLEASE HELP US SAVE JASPER — I AM BEGGING FROM THE DEPTHS OF MY SOUL

I sitting here typing this with tears constantly falling on my keyboard, completely broken. Over the past three days, my heart has been ripped out piece by piece. I have watched three of my precious babies—ThreeOhThree, Solo, and Bastet—suffer and cross over the rainbow bridge right in front of me.

ThreeOhThree passed away in my arms on Sunday while I looked into his eyes and felt his soul leave. Since that moment, a wailing has taken over me that I cannot control. I have screamed and cried until my voice is so exhausted I can barely speak above a whisper. They are not "just pets"—they are my babies, and this agony parallels a mother's deepest grief.

I take extreme precautions, so I know it isn't environmental poisoning, but three babies in three days is terrifying. What if it’s a contagious illness lying in wait, silently incubating to take the rest of my babies? I can't fight what I don't know.

Now, my sweet Jasper—my "Jazzy boy"—is sick. He came to me from the shelter, where he was just another tabby kitten meowing through the bars. I gave him a piece of my heart so big that losing him would leave a cavernous hole I can't even describe. Last night he started smacking his lips, drooling excessively, and his breath turned awful. The vet today saw that his tongue is swollen. (He loves licking sticky things like tape or trap inserts, so I don't know if that's related or something worse).

The vet refuses to run the diagnostic tests or do anything to help him until we pay upfront—no payment plans, and no waiting until Monday when my husband’s VA benefits come in. We CAN pay every single penny back next week, but Jasper cannot hang on that long!

I am literally begging anyone with a true sense of humanity in their heart to help me save my boy. I will pawn everything in our house, drive him to any vet no matter how far, pay back every cent, or pay it forward tenfold—whatever it takes.

Below is the estimate from Winfield Veterinary Hospital for Jasper's diagnostic workup (CBC, Chemistry Panel, Radiographs, and FeLV/FIV testing). The estimate ranges up to ~$555 to figure out what is killing my babies and save Jasper's life.

⚠️ IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER / NOTE ON DONATIONS:
Even though I am posting this on the CAALM Critters Animal Sanctuary page, this plea is coming strictly from me personally, as an individual. Due to an ongoing administrative licensing issue with the Kansas Dept. of Agriculture regarding state guidelines/paperwork, I cannot operate or accept funds under our 501(c)(3) nonprofit at this time, nor can I issue tax receipts. I am working hard to reach full compliance for our sanctuary, but right now, this is just a desperate mother begging for her personal family member.

If anyone can call the vet directly to put money on our account, or help us directly so Jasper can get these tests today, please, please reach out to me immediately.

Please help me save my Jazzy boy, before it's too late!
