11/25/17 – This is Sabrina. She was one of two kittens pulled from a shelter. She was very sick with a 94 degrees temperature. Sabrina required hospitalization and transfusions and the doctors thought she might not make it. But, with the help of Michigan’s Wayward Whiskers Cat Rescue (formerly known as Angels for Animals of MI), and 4 Paws 1 Heart, she fought death and is now doing good. Anyone interested in Sabrina should contact Erin at: [email protected]

11/23/17 – These poor animals are abandoned in the wild with so many issues causing them pain. I’m just thankful for the kind and loving rescuers who do not turn their backs and the many friends who support 4 Paws 1 Heart with monetary donations so that we can make a difference. ~ diana

“My day got away from me and forgot to update on Sassy. She had 12 teeth pulled this morning. Thank you everyone,
4 paws 1 heart, Diana Rascano, Kitty Clinic, Venus Gaucher and everyone who donated to get it all done! She is resting comfortably and enjoying being back home, safe and sound.
Needless to say, she was not a happy kitty this morning! – Patricia”

11/22/17 – A huge 4 Paws 1 Heart thanks to Jo Addington, who not only helps with fundraising, but who has saved a countless number of cats and found them forever homes. Jo works very closely with Debra Berolatti and Debbie Nelson and as a team they have been responsible for hundreds of new beginnings for cats who would have otherwise died alone on the streets. Here is Poppy, Dolly, Lola, Prince Bram, Poe, Clive and Hitchcock. Anyone interested in any of these sweeties should contact:[email protected] . All of these kittens/cats were rescued from the street or were left behind by their owners. 4 Paws 1 Heart has taken care of all of their medical needs. More lives saved because of our generous supporters and the many people working to make a difference. ~ diana

11/21/17 – I continue to give thanks to the many individuals who provide shelter and food to cat communities and, in the process, often find kittens who can be socialized and made healthy with the help of 4 Paws 1 Heart. Thank you to Brooke Comfort with Snow Cat II, Debra Berloatti with Casey, Rosie with Rachel Gerstner, Hope with Hope Wilson and Blackie with Kathy.

11/20/17 – During this week of giving Thanks I would like to sincerely thank all of those who literally save the lives of animals who have been abandoned and abused. Very often they put their own lives on the line and if not their lives, their time, their money, their hearts. One such group is from Jackson, MI, Saved by Zade. I believe I reported on this very moving rescue when we were first contacted. A mom and 4 kittens, who had obviously been in someone’s home, had been found on the side of a river near a park and a fishing bridge. One kitten was covered in maggots and he eventually died, but not before the wonderful rescuers were able to bathe him and love him. He died in one of their arms. Another kitten, Helen, needed both eyes removed immediately and an amazing doctor at Snow Animal Health Care did this for free. Two other kittens needed eye removal; and we committed to helping with this surgery when the time came. They had their surgeries two weeks ago and are doing great.
As winter approaches, please say a little prayer each night for all of these animals who have either been born in the wild or who have been thrown out by their owners. And, please, do whatever you can to be a part of the solution – rescue, donate, foster, adopt. Thanks, diana
