9/9/20 – 
I’m so upset. Serious prayers are needed for Diva… 
You might remember she was doing great and enjoying her spa day… Two days later she started with horrible diarrhea. She will not gain weight. She goes between 1 – 1.5 lb. She is about 9 weeks old now. Diva has a ravenous appetite, she is cuddling and she is playing, but she is not thriving with weight gain. We thought it was food intolerance so changed her to a prescription digestive food, treated her for parasites, have her on a nutracal supplement for the extra calories, a vitamin with higher iron for the loose stool, had her on an antibiotic, treated for coccidia, treated her ear infection, and she is on probiotics. Anyone that knows me is fully aware that it kills me to not know how to fix this baby girl… She is also pooping constantly. My friend and board member Dee and her awesome husband Rick are helping a ton taking care of Diva around the clock…and this baby wouldn’t be here without them! Gina

Simon and Toby – RIP – We Couldn’t Help Them Quickly Enough
9/9/20 – RIP Sweet Simon and Sweet Toby. Both were among 4 litters and 4 moms who were rescued in southwest Detroit. Unfortunately, before we could step in to help, 2 of the kittens died. Toby and Simon were both seen a number of times by vets and on his last visit, Toby passed away before the doctor could see him. Simon was diagnosed with FIP, which may have been the cause of the other deaths and after much consternation, the rescuer allowed him to cross the Rainbow Bridge. Please continue to pray and support the many stray, abandoned, and lost animals roaming our streets. And, if you have a little more room in your heart, please pray for the many rescuers and fosters whose hearts break every day at the loss of an innocent animal they tried to save. Unfortunately, the wait time for appointments in our low-cost clinics and veterinary hospitals continues to be an issue and the best we can do is to prioritize those animals closest to being able to reproduce. It has been a challenge for all. – diana

Leo, Lexington, Lucy, and Lebuch – Found at Days Old Stuck in an Excavator
9/6/20 – Happy Update! Remember the Excavator Kittens? The Harrison Twp. Engine House, next door to our friend, Jo, contacted her about days-old kittens stuck in an excavator which was on their property. It was a stormy night but our friends, Jo and Debra, went into action and freed them all and off they went to Jo’s house to be cared for until they could get all of their medical needs taken care of and adopted. They were finally old enough last week and today are doing great. Please contact Jo at: [email protected] if you are interested. Here are Leo, Lexington, Lucy, and Lebuch (not necessarily in order) – Diana
Simon, Bella, and Whiskers – Friendly Cats Found Amongst Barn Cats
9/6/20 – Simon, Bella, and Whiskers (whiskers were chewed off by someone (?)) are three kittens found amongst barn cats. All three are very friendly and the finder will be finding furever homes for all three. 4 Paws 1 Heart was, again, happy to ensure these babies will never reproduce and will live out their lives healthy and safe. Thank you to our many supporters, veterinarians, and rescuers!!! – diana
