11/21/20 – Salvaggio Update: Our good friend, Debra B., picked up sweet Salvaggio this morning. He spent the night in the hospital after his surgery on Friday. Everything went well and Salvaggio is now home with the mom who always fed him when he was a stray. Here he is with Josephine. Thank you to everyone who said a little prayer for him and sent over some positive energy. – diana

11/19/20 – Prayers and Positve Energy once again needed for this sweet boy, Salvaggio. He will have femur osteotomy surgery tomorrow. We were contacted about a week and a half ago about a cat who had been one of about 8 cats cared for by a very kind elderly woman who lives in a mobile home park. Unfortunately, for some reason, mobile home parks are saddled with many stray cats who appear to have been abandoned. They are typically very sweet and intact so just a couple of cats will turn into 20 in no time at all. Salvaggio has been a constant visitor for a few years but just recently showed up with his “leg hanging”. Our friend, Debbie N., stepped up and assessed the situation and arranged for Salvaggio to be seen by a vet. He was given pain meds and surgery was scheduled for tomorrow. Our elderly friend, Josephiine, has been given a large crate and bed to keep Salvaggio comfortable during his recovery. He will no longer be an outside cat.

There have been so many serious medical cases this year and we are forever grateful for the support our friends have given us during this very difficult period. – diana

11/17/20 – Please keep Alley Cat in your prayers and send her positive energy. She was found the other day but is unable to use her legs. It appears that she can’t stand on her back legs and there seems to be no use of her front legs. She was just trying to scoot to get around on the pavement. The rescuer brought her to their home and gave her food; she had a good appetite. While the rescuer, Shannon, held her, she urinated but didn’t seem to realize it. The rescue family has saved others in the past whom we have helped and they want to help this very sweet, lovable kitty. Unfortunately, the rescuers have been “hit hard over the past number of months with not being able to work because of the virus”. An appointment has been set up for this Saturday with one of our great partner vets but will be called if there is a cancellation. I just can’t say it enough — we have the very best supporters!!! – diana

11/14/20 – Jezzibelle Update – Her surgery went well and the doctor said the dental surgery went easier than expected. Thank you for all of your prayers and positive energy. – diana

11/12/20 – Please remember Jezzibelle in your prayers tonight. She was found on the streets in very much pain due to a serious gum/dental infection. She has been on antibiotics, has had blood work, and is now scheduled for her dental surgery and spay tomorrow. Jezzibelle is about 5 years old and will have 3 extractions tomorrow along with a cleaning. She already has missing teeth including both incisors. The very sweet girl has taken to suckling probably because her teeth have been causing her such pain. Jezzibelle is with Up in Arms for Animals Rescue and Rehab so, if you are interested in adopting her, please contact them. These beautiful animals would not have a second chance at life without the Village of animal advocates and caretakers. – diana
