I'm in the US and need emergency pet care for a kitten and don't know how to pay for it (beehaw.org)

I found it caught in a loose string wrapped around it's leg and released it. After a couple days I've noticed it's been chewing through it's leg, now, and it's in a lot of pain I'm sure. The mother won't care for it either.

These cats are wild and I can't seem to catch all of them before they start reproducing, for the past 2 years I have been spaying and neutering these cats, but more keep showing up.

I live out in the country in the US, and I haven't been able to get anyone to come take the cats, it's like I'm just stuck with them. A few of them are outdoor family cats, and we don't want to lose those.

I don't know what to do about any of it, I can't afford another pet bill right now, especially a bill for a kitten needing so much care. Any recommendations are appreciated. I live in KY, United States

See if the emergency vet accepts CareCredit. You can apply for it and use it same day. They should have a thing at the front desk that will tell you how to apply.

If you apply and are denied, see if they will work with you on it and explain that you were denied.

I'll look into this also. Thank you
