REQUEST FULFILLED Help with groceries/cat food
Hello,
I am a teacher caring for my mother who has both physical and mental health issues. Between rising food costs, rent, a couple of car issues, and medical bills (including bills for a minor surgery I had earlier this year), we are really struggling. While my mother should qualify for government assistance based on her needs and issues, she has been denied multiple times. We are currently trying to fight through the system, but it is slow-going and incredibly frustrating. This is to help us make it to my next paycheck on the 31st.
I have two cats, and my mom came with two cats when she moved in with me. Of the four, two are seniors and two are middle-aged, hence the two kinds of food. The seniors are unfortunately very picky and won’t really eat anything without the Hartz toppers. The most important things on the Amazon list are the cat food because them being fed and happy is most important to me.
I have also included snacks that are easy for my mother to make when I’m not home (Mac and cheese, cereal, peanut butter and crackers, meat sticks), along with some protein shakes and bars for myself because those keep me full and make it easier to skip meals. Please feel free to prioritize my mom’s food over mine.
I have, to make ends meet, sold hobby items over the last few months it’s just hard to make ends meet right now.
Thank you to anyone reading this and considering helping.
