You have to take her to a vet. Can you ask your parents to borrow money or somebody? If this little cat dies, you will have to live with the fact that you did not do everything you could do to possibly save her life. You sound like an animal lover and I am sure you do not want this to happen. I would reccomend calling the Humane Society in whatever town you live in and ask them if they would be willing to have their vet see your cat at no cost. Most likely they will. Or you can just take her to a vet. The visit is only like $45 dollars usually. Please do what is right.

Your kitten needs to get to the vet ASAP, regardless of your financial situation. When you took in a pet, you took on the responsibility of caring for it -- including vet care.
It sounds as though either your dog injured her when she "got hold of her," or she is epileptic. Having that many seizures in one hour is an EMERGENCY situation.
If your current vet won't take payments, find one who will. Some vets are just in it for the money, and some really love the animals and will take the risk of not being paid if it means the difference between care and no care.
Sell some of your stuff if you have to; talk to your friends, parents, neighbors, other relatives; but you need to take your kitten to get proper medical care ASAP.
Good luck.

It sounds like your dog did something to her neck when she picked her up, and that caused some neurological (spine/brain) problem. If she's sleeping a lot, and walking (stumbling) into walls, she's in A LOT OF SERIOUS TROUBLE!! Please get her to a vet ASAP. If you were attacked by an animal or a car, you would be taken to the doctor immediately......why not give your pet the same care? I hope you do this SOON, and you don't lose her! Good luck.........

you need to get off the computer and rush your kitten to the nearest er!
add_ see if you can get approved for care credit or see if both of you together can get approved. if you do not get this kitten some help now there is a very strong possibility it will die.

I'd go to a 24 hour vet.
And I mean NOW!

sounds like a neurological problem to me. get thee to a vet, if it's viral, there may still be time to fix it.
