Her Sweet Cat Was Diagnosed With A Fatal Disease, But There Is A Cure If She Can Come Up With Enough Money
Livingston, Montana. To Abby Webster, Owen the kitty is the key to a better life and her better self.
As a resident in Livingston, Montana, Abby Webster adopted Owen three years ago when he was just a baby.
The two had spent most of the time together with just each other during the lockdown time in 2020 caused by the first pandemic wave.
Like most pet owners, Owen is not just a cat to Abby. Abby explained in her GoFundMe post that she has been battling depression, anxiety, and panic attacks in her entire adulthood.
“It’s just the way I am wired,” Abby wrote on her page.
“The thing is, over the past three years, I have taken tremendous leaps toward personal growth and health,” she continued. “I know that ultimately it’s me who got me to where I am, but I didn’t get there without lots of help.”
During her self-healing journey, Owen plays a big part in it. Abby explained that she has the classic HSP (Highly Sensitive person) trait, making her often relate to animals more than humans.
So having Owen is like having “one of the purest forms of loving presence” to herself. And for that reason, the sweet furball is tremendously healing for her.

Besides being a sweetheart, Owen is also described as “the friendliest and most intelligent beings” Abby has ever known.
“Every morning, he’d wait there until my alarm went off and start the day with me,” Abby wrote.
“Every night, he would curl up at the foot of my bed and go to sleep. Then, he would go on walks with me around the neighborhood, following me the whole way home.”
However, Abby had just received the news that she would the least want to hear of: her special kitty Owen was diagnosed with a horrible illness. This fatal disease would eventually cause him to suffocate to death.
As the news is desperate and the medical process would be arduous, Abby does not want to give up on hopes for Owen. She believes this is when she fights for Owen’s life, just like how Owen helped her fight hers.
“I thought very hard and prayed and meditated on the solution,” Abby said. “I must do what it takes to help him, just like he helped me. I must give him a chance at living, just like he did for me.”
Owen is only three years old. And with some help, he can have an opportunity to have a long life and spend more time with his best friend, Abby.
