Good grief, you've got to get that cat to an emergency vet ASAP!!! If you can own a pet, you must be able to afford it's proper care.

TAKE YOUR CAT TO THE VET. A little common sense man. If you got hit by a car, would your parents just leave you laying on the floor & hope that you get better? If you can't afford a regular vet, sometime Humane Society's have a low cost vet clinic. If you really think that little of your cat, just drop it off at the Humane Society so someone who has half a brain can take care of it, because you are not ready to be a pet owner.

The best advice I can give you is to go see a Vet right away, I know that you said that they cost a lot but there is very little that you can do for the cat yourself.
My guess as to where all the blood is coming from is that when he was hit, something inside was damaged and he now has internal bleeding. I don't have too much advice as to what to do yourself, but if you really want to save the cat you can try to bring it to a local animal shelter, you would not get to keep him, but that way it would be guaranteed that it would be given a chance to live, and since it is so young it would get adopted to a good home very quickly.

He got hit by a car! He needs to go to the vet. He could have internal bleeding, an infection who knows what. But if can't pay the vet bill and he can't hardly move then the best thing to do is put him down. He sounds like he's suffering which is terrible. I mean if you were injured but didn't have the money to see a doctor wouldn't you still try and go to the emergency room to get some help. If you find out the cost of saving him is to much then you can do the right thing and have him put down. I know how hard that is, I'm a cat lover. But if anything happened to one of my babies and they were suffering I wouldn't want them to have to keep suffering.

Why, oh why do people have pets they cannot take care of? This is an excellent example of someone who should never have a pet. A 7-month old kitten should not be running around outside at all. Now he is either hit by a car or some idiot has purposely injured him, he is bleeding, in pain urinating himself and not eating, and you need to post a question as to what you should do? What you should do is never, ever own another pet in your life. Oh, by the way- this is not love.

My question to you is why you would get a cat if you couldn't afford him? Vet bills everywhere are pricy, not just in Jersey, but most owners factor those in when getting a new pet. I'm sorry if I sound mean but this is the truth. Prolonging proper health care from an animal is cruel, especially if they can save your cat. Hope everything works out with your cat.

Try and locate a local human society they could probably help you or direct you to someone who could work out a payment plan or possibly pay for the services via their donations. He most likely has internal bleeding, if it is not looked into will probably not make it. Just go into a yahoo search box and enter Human Socitey in New Jersey, I did and I came up with a site that list several in the New Jersey area. I would give you the link, but it does not hyperlink within this e-mail. I wish you the best but it does not sound good. He may have kidney damage.

you may perchance do away with the mummy cat, convey her to a vet to offer up her, or a shelter, and nurse the kitten your self with kitten formulation. And enable her out of the basement, cats choose sunshine and clean air. If there is conflict along with your mom, Then perchance you may no longer have a cat, because she's so scared cats. perchance see in case you will get a dogs, if she's no longer frightened of them. different then that your concentration could be on making useful that kitten is secure, and healthful. Oh and doubtless the mommy cat does not choose something to do along with her kitten cuz she's pregnant back. undesirable element

A trip to the vet is urgently needed. Explain your financial situation to the vet. They are usually animal lovers themselves and just caring people in general. I'm sure he or she will help your cat and ''work with you'' on the money issue. Perhaps you can help out at the office to work your debt off. Now go take your cat in!

You MUST take him to the vet!! HE IS IN MAJOR AMOUNTS OF PAIN!!
He probably has broken bones and internal bleeding. YOU WOULD GO TO THE HOSPITAL IF YOU'D BEEN HIT BY A CAR!! Vet's offices can set up payment plans.
You can't love an animal TOO MUCH to put it to sleep. That is selfish. You have to love an animal ENOUGH to put it to sleep. If you were in that much pain, you would know what I'm saying!!!
