My kittens are sick and I lost my job. How to pay for vet bills?

Question

Hello, I rescued a kitten recently. She was sneezing from the start and I was told it was normal. Now she very congested and once sneezed blood. I turned off the air conditioner and got a warm mist humidifier. Recently, a week after I got the kitten, I lost my job and not sure what to do. My other kitten is also now sneezing and dripping from the nose. I’m really scared. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 4 months and 16 days old | 3 lbs

It sounds like they both have respiratory infections, and they need to see a vet. If paying for a vet is an issue, you can see if your vet accepts payment plans, if there is a low cost clinic in your area, or you can apply for Care Credit online. There is also an organization called Red Rover that give grants for treatment of sick animals, and you can see if you qualify for one of their grants. Best Friends also has a list of resources that offer financial assistance on their website. http://www.humanesociety.org/animals/resources/tips/trouble_affording_pet.html?credit=web_id91754962 https://www.redrover.org https://www.carecredit.com http://bestfriends.org/resources/financial-aid-pets http://lessonsfromaparalyzeddog.com/when-pet-owners-cant-afford-veterinary-bills/ http://www.dogheirs.com/resources-affordable-veterinary-care/
