Senior Duo Rescued From Abandoned House

Louie and Lucie get a new chance at love and life!

After being found in an abandoned home with visible signs of neglect, our friends at Noah’s Ark Rescue Project and Sanctuary stepped up to save their lives.

We are honored to donate $400 toward their second chance at the love and life they deserve.

Update from NARP: This senior pair was found in a filthy, abandoned house. No one really knows how long they were fending for themselves. They are sadly snuggling at the shelter and have no idea that they are about to die. 💔

They are both scared in the shelter, and are only happy when they are together.🥺 Lucie and Louie are estimated to be about 9 years old with skin/ear/eye infections, broken teeth, some and hearing loss. They are both sweet and low key, medium sized pups. They both had good meets with other dogs. 😢

Thanks to NARP, generous supporters, and a loving foster, Louie and Lucie are SAFE!

Cat With Broken Pelvis Saved From Code Red

In her short life, Burrito, found herself gravely injured and marked as Code Red at a local shelter. Our friends at Rise Again Animal Rescue vowed to rescue her and provide the urgent medical care she needed. With a suspected fractured pelvis and the sweetest personality, we were honored to donate $400 toward her care. Feel better soon, sweet girl!

Update from Rise Again Animal Rescue: “X-Rays showed a broken pelvis AND a broken femur. She will liking need an FHO-Femoral Head Ostectomy, this can cost anywhere from $1500-$3,000. We will be scheduling a surgery consult ASAP to have a final estimate and plan.

The Vet said this isn’t something that just happened. It’s terrible to think she was living on the streets for who knows how long in unimaginable pain. 😭😭 She is also skin and bones, and most likely attacked by another animal to cause the large abscess on her back.

Despite of all she’s been through, she is the SWEETEST little girl. And what better hands for our new baby to be in last night then one of our own! So lucky and glad Courtney was working.

Burrito met a very nice surgeon today! Dr. Winkler was happy with Burrito’s range of movement but said that she is too skinny to even think about any invasive procedures… so for the next two months, Burrito will be working on putting on weight and keeping her leg muscles from atrophying. Thankfully her foster mom is experienced with PT and hydrotherapy, and is basically an expert in snacking. In two months we will re-evaluate, but for now she is done with vet visits and is determined to eat her weight in Churu.”

Helping Community Cats One Feline Friend at a Time

Recently we were contacted by our friend Pat M who was helping a community cat caretaker who found one of their feral cats in distress with an injured tail that was severely damaged and required a tail amputation.

With the help of Forgotten Cats, the cat had the tail amputation completed and after recovering, he will be released back to his colony.

Helping community cats is a big part of our mission and we are thankful to be able to pay for the tail amputation for this cat to make him more comfortable after sustaining this injury.

Dog on Kill List Saved at Last Second and Give a Second Chance at Life

Thank you Sarama Animal Rescue for taking a chance on Doc!

We are honored to donate toward his medical care and hope he feels better soon!

From Sarama Animal Rescue, “Doc was time stamped for ten am this morning at one of our partner shelters. Because a foster stepped up we were able to pull him and he’s safe now ❤️

While he seems stable, it was suspected that he was hit by a car prior to coming to the shelter. Upon examination it was discovered that he has pulmonary contusions and liver injury from his recent hit by car (both of which should resolve without treatment) but his jaw abnormality is old and likely due to ANOTHER blunt force trauma earlier in life.”

UPDATE – January 31, 2023 “Doc has to go back to the vet yesterday and spend the day there. He stopped eating and wouldn’t take his meds and his fever went back up. Thankfully his fever went down and he started to eat again. The staff got him some chicken nuggets which he loved. We are hoping he continues to eat as take meds orally and continues to feel better. The vet said the next step would be for him to see an internal medicine specialist. We have an appt early March but are on a cancellation list as we hope to get him soon earlier. If he starts to decline we will take him through the ER.

He’s getting lost of TLC from his foster family and is very much loved. We want to thank everyone who donated so far for Doc. We really appreciate your help. We want to give a special thank you to @philadoptables for a $400 medical grant that will help with the costs of Doc’s medical care ❤️❤️❤️“

Neglected and Ill Cat Rescued from Neglect Receives Medical Care

Thanks to our friends at Rise Again Animal Rescue, chronically ill Beebee, a nine-year-old cat in need is safe! From allergies, IBD, and stomatitis to a host of other autoimmune issues, Beebee is a survivor of a breeding operation, hoarding situation, and severe neglect.

Beebee deserves a lifetime of love and the care he deserves which is why we are pleased to donate toward his care. He is undergoing lengthy immunosuppressive therapy and will soon be undergoing a dental procedure.

Feel better, Beebee!
