10/7/19 – Our friend, Alanda, was a foster for Happy Tails Rescue which is no longer in operation. She rescued Blaz (see 4paws1heart.org) and two other cats whom we helped with their medical bills. Well, this little sweetie knew where to show up — Alanda’s house. You don’t know how many times I hear how animals just seem to know where to go to find help. This is Baby. She is only months old and will be getting spayed, vaccinated, and tested. Baby will be looking for her forever home and if you are interested, please contact Alanda at: [email protected]

Chloe (aka Cleo) – Found Pregnant While on the Streets
10/3/19 – When I say this has been a ‘banner’ year for stray cats, I am not kidding. As mentioned in prior posts, we committed to assisting many Mama Cats who would be needing to be spayed along with their babies to be neutered and spayed. All of these babies are now becoming of age which means more medical needs. This is Mama Cleo (aka Chloe) who was found on the streets, pregnant. She was taken in by her rescuer and now her FIVE babies are ready for their ‘makeovers’. Remember, that a female cat can start having babies at 4 months old and she can have 3 litters a year for almost her entire life. No matter how much we all try, the need continues to be great. There has been much success in the many cat communities we’ve helped but unfortunately there are still those females showing up (either having escaped or abandoned) fully intact and easy prey for the males. This is Cleo (aka Chloe) with her babies, when she had her babies and now Cleo 3 months later with her babies who will be getting spayed/neutered/vaccinated as soon as they can get in. Meet Puffy (aka Boo), Gamora, Lilo, Sully (aka Stitch), and Aurora. Without your donations, we couldn’t make a difference. ~ diana

PW – RIP – Found With a Wound Filled With Maggots and His Tail Was Half Gone
10/2/19 – RIP Sweet PW. He showed up in a cat community. He had a wound filled with maggots and his tail was half gone. He was very emaciated and we were contacted to help; which, thankfully, we were able to do. Unfortunately, this little guy was too far gone to help and the doctors and rescuers made that very difficult decision to let him cross the Rainbow Bridge. This has been a very difficult year for cats and I worry for the frigid months ahead. Thank you to the rescuers and thank you to our supporters. I’m sorry but we do not have a photo of PW to remember him properly but we needed to acknowledge his existence. – diana

Jessie – Rescued From a Cat Community
10/2/19 UPDATE: Jessie is a girl and is negative for FIV or FeLV. Unfortunately, Ferndale Cat Shelter cannot take her in so she is still in need of a rescue or a furever home. Please contact Denise at: [email protected] if you can help. She is too sweet and compliant to put back out in the wild. – diana
10/1/19 – It’s October 1 and although today will be 88 degrees, the weather will be taking a deep dive tomorrow and we all know that freezing winter weather is just around the corner. And this little 3-4 month old, Jessie, could use your help to find his forever home before he has to be put back to where he was found.
Our many rescue friends are out there working hard to get abandoned/stray cats and kittens into the vet to have them spayed/neutered/vaccinated and then returned to where they were found. But, In many cases, there are kittens/cats found in communities who are not feral and who were obviously pets at one time who had either escaped their homes or were abandoned by their owners. Jessie appears to be one of them.
Jessie was found in a cat community cared for by a very kind man who is doing the best he can to shelter them from the upcoming frigid weather and to provide the community food. Chance’s mom, Dee, and trapper extraordinaire, Debra, have been helping him to at least get everyone spayed/neutered with the financial assistance of 4p1h. This morning Jessie is going to All About Animals to be spayed/neutered/vaccinated and treated for any fleas/parasites BUT Jessie is so very tame and sweet, Dee and Debra are hoping that a rescue or loving human will step up to take Jessie in before Jessie has to be released back into the community. P
LEASE SHARE this and if you have any friends/family looking for a beauty, Jessie is the one. Thanks, Diana

Izabella – Her Owner Died While Izabella Laid on Her Chest
9/30/19 – Such a very sad story. One of our Board members, who fosters senior cats, was tagged by someone in rescue about a 20-old senior whose owner died two weeks ago. Izabellal was a true kitty companion and laid on her owner’s chest as she passed away. Unfortunately, the family is allergic and Izabella is terrified of men. I have so much respect for our Board member who took in Izabella because as a foster for senior cats, she has also had her heart broken many times as they cross the Rainbow Bridge. May God Bless the Village. ~ diana

Syeera – RIP – She Was Found During a Severe Thunderstorm; Extremely Thin, Sick, and Walking in Circles
9/26/19 – RIP Syeera. She was found during a recent severe thunderstorm, a little over a week ago. She was extremely thin, wet, sick, and walking in circles. The woman who found her couldn’t leave her like that but also couldn’t take her inside because she has 3 large, cat-unfriendly dogs. So, she put Syeera in a large crate with food, water, and litter box but the crate had to be kept outside under an awning. Long story short, a person who transported her to the vet, decided she couldn’t stand thinking of Syeera in that crate and went back and got her. While in Danielle’s home, she realized that Syeera must have recently had kittens because there was still milk in her breast nipples and she was just so skinny. Syeera had been given antibiotics for her upper respiratory infection and seemed to be getting better but then she took a turn for the worse and arrangements were made for her to see one of our favorite veterinarians, Dr. Z at Orion Animal Hospital. Unfortunately, Syeera never made it to the appointment. The night before she began to have seizures and was taken to emergency. It was decided to let this very sweet girl cross the Rainbow Bridge. May God be with all of the animals out alone on the streets and be with the rescuers who try so hard to save lives. The heartbreak is overwhelming but they continue to do it, day in and day out. ~ diana
