"paralyzed" cat...

Hi there,

My cat has been "paralyzed" since Saturday morning...she cannot get up on her legs..but she can move them.
I was wondering if this is permanent..what kind of life would i be subjecting her to...should I consider euthanasia. If it is permanent, I will have to forcefeed her around the clock, and she will have to wear a diaper b/c she cannot get up to use the litter.
What should I do??
I believe she was poisoned, but she doesnt seem to be in any pain.
Im in desperate need of answers. I cannot take her to the vet because i cannot afford treatment, and I know they will probably say to euthanize her since I cannot afford the treatment.
And I dont think anyone will want her, but i would love to find her a new home with someone who could afford her treatment, but thats highly unlikely.
Anyway, any help will be GREATLY appreciated!

Thank you,
Crystal
