Kitcat is my 5 year old sons companion, Jayden has autism and gets comfort from cat being around him.  A couple months ago kitcat was throwing up so we took him to the vet and they found a foreign object in his stomach that was too big for him to pass. They also told us that it could stay in there for a really long time and not cause any trouble or it could move and eventually would have to have surgery to get it to come out. We took the chance open to save up some money just in case we had to have the surgery and things have gone pretty well up until now. Over the last day or two he's been throwing up really lethargic and not eating or drinking so we're going to end up having to bring him to the vet again and most likely he's going to have to have surgery which we do not have the money for at the moment. Jayden loves his cat more than anything and he'd be very devastated if something would happen to him. I'm afraid that if we bring him to the vet and find out he has to have surgery and since we don't have the money for it we're going to end up having to put him down. He's only a 3 year old cat and I really can't imagine how Jayden's going to feel.
