3517 USD covers hotel (both past due and due Tuesday), bills (including vet bill), as well as food, gas & toiletries.

754 covers current Hotel Past Due & late fees (which grow with each day not covered).

A screenshot of Fen's October Bills Goal, here's what it says:

"Posting October Goal a bit early in hopes that some of it will get done.
Also on the first week in the 2nd half of October, my job will be renovating for an entire work week, so I don't know if I can do vacation time or what will happen. Plus my hours can be a bit hectic, honestly.

★ Rent is always $850 a month, so after bills are out of the way, anything towards rent helps with us also getting necessities too during pay days. $106.25 covers me for the week of renovations.
• Electric was $106, so it's safe to assume $150 will cover the next months electric.
• Wi-Fi is $58.17 due on Oct 19th.
• Garbage is $110 every 3 months ($77.50 left so far).

I also need stuff from my Main (Necessities) Throne Wishlist please, it helps us be able to live here easier.

Goals base total right now = $450 (including any possible transfer fees)"
