I had her for 3 years and giving her away makes me feel so upset as she'd been with me through my ups and downs. The reason I had to give her away is because I couldn't afford having her spayed as it is really expensive in our country, and she gives birth 3-4 times a year which is extremely overwhelming for me since the adoption process of her kittens takes too long and I have a lot of responsibilities to take care of. She also gets sick a lot everytime she gets pregnant so I tried to put her in a cage everytime she's in heat but it didn't work as she always finds a way to escape. I also went to the city vet here in our country and registered for the free spay program, but unfortunately I have to wait for years because their list is filled as there were too many registrants.
I also have 5 other rescue pets, the other one is suffering from a tumor and it has to be surgically removed which is really expensive for me because I am just a student and we are a mid-class/ low-class family. My parents are both self-employed and they only earn 15k pesos a month ($300) and that is not even enough for us.
I've been crying a lot and hurting myself lately due to stress and depression caused by worrying about how I am supposed to provide them their needs. If only I am capable of paying for her needs, I would have done it without a second thought.
