Zeytin Needs 25 Vials to Live — And Time Is Running Out

In Eskişehir, Turkey, a small street cat is sitting in a clinic cage, waiting.
Her name is Zeytin.
She has been diagnosed with wet FIP.
Without treatment, this disease is almost always fatal. With treatment, she has a chance.
But right now, that chance is slipping away.
Not Her Cat — Still Her Responsibility
Zeytin doesn’t belong to anyone. She’s a street cat.
But when she got sick, one person chose not to walk away. Narsis Omidvar stepped in.
No organization. No funding. No safety net.
Just one person refusing to leave a sick animal behind.
“I am completely alone here. I have no support, no family who can help me. I’m doing everything I can, but I don’t know what to do anymore.”
The Reality: Treatment Exists — But It’s Expensive
Zeytin weighs 3.7 kg and needs treatment with GS-441524.
Total needed: 25 vials
For many people, that cost is already overwhelming. For Narsis, it’s impossible.
She’s now urgently asking for:
leftover GS vials
donated medication
financial help of any kind
Because right now, there is nothing else.
A Complication You Might Not Expect
Helping isn’t as straightforward as sending money.
PayPal is not available in Turkey. That means:
international donations are difficult
multiple transfers get eaten by fees and taxes
less money actually reaches Zeytin
So there’s a simple but crucial ask: Can someone help collect donations and send them as one transfer?
It’s not just about giving — it’s about making sure the help actually arrives.
Zeytin Is Still Waiting
She’s still in that cage. Still fighting. Still depending on someone to act in time.
