I’m sky high in medical bills and cannot afford my cat payment this month, should I consider getting a payday loan for the meantime to help?

That's one expensive cat. Maybe you should tell it to get a job. Payday loans are stupid for just about any reason (there must be a lot of stupid people out there though because they seem to be popular).

Sell the cat. Get another when you can afford it.

troll? I've read your other posts. You are only 19 and live at home. And you don't have a license or drive (as of 2 days ago).

That only pushes your problem to next month and makes it even worse then. I assume you meant car, not cat, payment.

Make the car payment. Ask the doctor(s) to put you on some kind of payment plan.

I assume you mean "car payment" and not cat payment.. Have you tried calling the billing department of hospitals or medical facilities about help with your bills? They can sometimes find grants or assistance for people in your position. A payday loan is always a bad idea--they charge high interest and you will be in worse debt than before. They are also very aggressive and will hound you about repayment. I advise you to go to a bank about a debt consolidation loan.

Get rid of the cat.

If you actually mean cat, find the pet a new home. If you mean car, and you will have enough to pay back the loan next month, you are probably better off just being late with the car payment. Actually, putting of paying the medical bills is probably better than the car payment, they CAN'T repossess medical treatment after the fact. Pat Wooden's advice is also good. There may be assistance available for the medical costs.

No you should work out what you can afford to pay and contact the debtors and make an offer based on what you can afford, not borrow more money getting yourself further into debt
