Hello.

A few months ago, I lost everything.

I lost my job. And in the midst of my despair, I put my trust in someone who promised me a quick fix. I invested everything I had… and lost it. There’s no way to get that money back.

Shortly afterwards, my cat, Latte, fell seriously ill.

I adopted her from an animal shelter a few years ago. She was rescued after being abandoned and abused. They even cut off part of her tail. Despite everything, she is the sweetest and strongest creature I know. When she fell ill with liver disease, I knew I couldn’t let her down. I had her hospitalised for several days. The treatment cost over €3,500, but I couldn’t let her die. She’d already suffered too much.

Today I’ve found a job, and I’m fighting every day. I eat wherever I can, and I cut back wherever possible. But between mounting debts, the rent and basic living costs, I simply can’t make ends meet.

All I’m asking for is a chance to breathe. To pay off my debts, get back on my feet and start afresh.

If you can contribute, even a little, you’ll help me more than you can imagine.

And if you can’t, simply sharing this story is already a huge gesture.

Thank you for reading. Thank you for not letting go of my hand, even though we don’t know each other.

All for her. All to get back on my feet.

Antoine
