Does anyone know how to setup a GoFundMe?

Hey guys. On the weekend our young cat Rusty Nuts was bitten by a snake. He is at the vet now and has been given anti-venom and on a fluid drip. He is starting to respond to treatment and can possibly come home Thursday.
So stoked. The reason we want to start a GoFundMe is to buy the materials needed to convert our veranda into a cat enclosure so this can never happen again. This is the second of our fur children to be bitten by a snake. The first was Mister Sylvester who did not survive the ordeal
That happened earlier last year and we still miss him terribly. I've never set anything like this up before and don't know how it's done.
So help setting this GoFundMe up would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading fuzz people.

Don't you have to sell stuff for a kick starter? Perhaps you mean that other one. Go fund me. Or whatever it's called.
Hmmm.
Least knowledgeable post ever.
Sucks about your cat dude - great to hear it's on the mend.

Thanks mate, we're very happy he's on the mend too. He is one of the most loveable affectionate cats we have ever had. He's just the bestest. If we had lost him we would of been devastated hard. All our other cats are awesome too, but he is very special.
Yeah you're probably right there, like I said I'm new to this begging for money thing.
Never done it before
time to re title and edit the thread. Thanks for the info dude

No idea how it works, but I'll gladly donate a couple of buckaroos to keep your fur children safe.

Devi does...sorry couldn't resist.
It should be pretty straight forward I would think. I've known a few people that have used them. Although I'm not sure they are very successful with it. So using and using it well are two different thing. LOL.
What kind of snakes do you issues with? Copper Heads?? If so, they are fuckers man. I've shot a ton of snakes and can tell the difference most of times between the good and bad ones. It sucks because the bad ones usually aren't even bad, they just get disturbed and react. They are horribly dangerous though.
There might even be some traps you can set up. I'd look into that in the mean time. That way you know you're at least partially protected.
Check this shit out!!

This product is recommended for use around the perimeter of the property and should not be used in areas frequented by people or pets.
We don't want Kaos to ironically kill his cats while trying to protect them.
(to be fair the same faq also states that that stuff is safe for children and pets -
).

No way that snake repellent works in the Aussie bush, mate.

Id donate.
My vote is you move somewhere without snakes. Snakes freak me the hell out. Last year camping we saw sooooo many rattle snakes and it made me not enjoy the trip. Like I have to rack my brain for anything else about the trip other than snakes. On the path, in the bushes, swimming in the lake. Rattlers everywhere. It was terrible.

I'm not sure how anyone lives in a place where every animal is poisonous and every year there are fires so big they create their own weather patterns.
All the best to you and yours, Kaos!

That reminds me, bushfire season is nearly here. Time to pack our bug out bags. Thanks!
Apart from all the poisonous animals and the huge bushfires, Australia is a great place to live. We have a great lifestyle in a lot of ways, though part of that is being lost because of the dickheads running things here. It could be worse though. We could have gun crime also.
