A STRAY CAT’S PRAYER

11/27/22 – And this is why—
“Please send me somebody who really does care.
I’m so tired of running and sick with despair.
My body is aching and filled with such pain;
Everyday I hope, as I run in the rain
That someone will love me and give me a home,
A warm cosy bed, and food of my own.
My owner left me alone in the yard…
I watched them move house , and that was so hard.
So I waited a while, then went on my way
To rummage in bins and live as a stray.
But now, I’m so tired and hungry and cold;
And I’m so afraid that I will never grow old.
They’ve chased me with sticks and hit me with straps
While I run the streets just looking for scraps.
I’m not really bad, please help if you can,
For I have become just a “Victim of Man.”
I’m wormy, I’m scruffy, and I’m riddled with fleas;
And all that I want is an owner to please.
If you find one for me, I’ll try to be good.
I won’t scratch the carpet; I’ll do as I should.
I’ll love them, play with them, and try to obey.
I will be so grateful if they’ll let me stay.
I don’t think I’ll make it too long on my own,
‘Cause I’m getting weak and I’m so all alone.
Each night as I sleep in the bushes I cry,
I’m so afraid, that I’m gonna die.
I’ve got so much love and devotion to give
I should be given a new chance to Live.
My friends today, this is my prayer ,
That someone will find me, who will really care.
That you will help, get me out of the cold .
And together we can be friends as we grow old.”

NOVA, AN EXAMPLE OF WHY ROUND 2 IS SO IMPORTANT

11/27/22 – Once again, thank you, for helping us get into Round 2 of the Detroit News Cheer for Charity contest. Round 2 will begin December 2 so look for the launch; the contest will run through December 16. The charity with the most dollars in donations will win $20,000!!

Nova and her new babies are a great example of why your donations are so very important. If it weren’t for her rescuer, this beautiful female would have had her babies while she was chained at an abandoned house. But instead, she had these 9 babies, warm, without rain, being watched over by a caring person. And, 4 Paws 1 Heart will be there for Nova to see she gets her treatment for heart worm and we will also make sure her babies receive their vaccines and eventually spayed/neutered and in homes. Here they are….
