8/30/17 – Frankie was found on the street with a broken femur. Every day we are thankful to be working with great rescues like the Ferndale Cat Shelter, who will take in the abandoned animal once we take care of the medical bills. It was necessary to have Frankie’s leg amputated, but he will do great in a forever loving home. ~ dia

Poppy – Living in an Abusive Situation; Heart Worm Positive
8/29/17 – A caring person learned of a dog being kept in an attic. The dog broke the window and was ‘barking’ for help. It was a very abusive situation and fortunately the dog went home with the rescuer. She was taken to an emergency hospital where the foot pad was found to be split and bleeding with a missing nail. Later it was learned that she was heart worm positive; that is when we were contacted. Poppy is one of the heart worm cases that we committed to and she has been on her 30 day pre-treatment and will be starting the injections soon. She is doing very well with the family but has not acclimated to the family dogs. Say a little prayer that this sweet animal will have peace and love. ~ diana
Zena – Found on the Street; Missing a Part of Her Leg
8/28/17 – Meet Zena (aka Captain America). The rescuer was contacted about a cat roaming the area who was missing part of ‘his’ leg. All the rescuer had to do was to put out a trap and ‘he’ just walked into it. (It’s hard not to have a piece of your heart break off each time I’m contacted about these many animals and think about the many who are never rescued.) But, the good news is that Captain America (actually Zena) is one of the few rescued and was named such because of how amazing he was to have survived the street with half of his leg missing. As you may have guessed, Captain America turned out to be a Captainess America and was renamed Zena. She had her leg amputated and is now in a loving foster home.
