Everyone who went last year had a great time and Leon secretly told me that this year will be even better. – diana.

Too bad we can’t bring Leon to the show, but we’re excited to kick off the Corktown Music Festival on Friday, March 3rd at Nancy Whiskey’s! Get there early as we hit the stage at 7:30pm sharp!

Proceeds go to support our favorite non-profit 4 Paws 1 Heart

1/3/22 – Cedar is an exotic short hair who was rescued in mid-December from a breeder at 14 weeks old. He was hospitalized with Pyothorax which occurs when pus or inflammatory fluids collect in the space around the lungs causing fever, anorexia, lethargy, and difficulty breathing. It is the result of infection around the lungs caused by wounds either internally or externally, migrating foreign bodies, or lung infection.

We were contacted by Kittens in the Mittens Rescue, who we’ve assisted before, because Cedar had been admitted to an emergency hospital. At the time, we could only help with a fraction of what the total bill was estimated at but glad we could help with something. I checked on Cedar yesterday and was told that he is doing well after spending a week in the hospital. He will be having a follow up exam next week. Anyone interested in this little cutie should contact Kittens in the Mittens Rescue; they do great work in our communities. – Diana

1/2/23 – I’m sorry to announce that the traditional Lions vs Packers Fundraiser is CANCELLED due to a change in game time. Just a little while ago, the NFL announced that the game was rescheduled for 8:20 p.m. Sunday, January 8, 2023. We hate to do this but we felt that most people would not be able to attend because of the late starting time, especially on a Sunday when most people have to work the following day.

If the Lions make it to the playoffs, we will try to schedule a fundraiser for that. PAWS CROSSED and STAY TUNED. PLEASE SHARE this post and help us get the word out. – diana

1/2/23 – Here are a few of the many felines we were able to help with medical in 2022. Unfortunately, there was an overwhelming number of stray animals needing our help this past year. But, fortunately, because of our supporters we were able to meet their needs whether they required simple vetting (spay/neuter/vaccines/testing/deworming) or something more complicated requiring surgery or prolonged treatment. These are just a few whose stories weren’t posted: Donovan, Diesel, Tyler, Oscar, Heidi, Denise, Rocket, Lola, Leah, Rocky, and Sally.

Throughout the month I will continue to at least show you more of those innocents who we were able to help and who either found their way into permanent homes or who were TNR’d and cared for by a community caretaker.

Thank YOU, once again, for giving all of us the opportunity and the ability to make a difference in the lives of so many orphans. – diana.

1/1/23 – Many hearts are broken over the very sad news that a beautiful friend of 4 Paws 1 Heart as well as the many cats she saved in her lifetime, Tonya Stoker, passed away last night. I reported on Tonya’s devastating survival struggle since August. Her cousin, Erika Robinson, and many friends came together to find homes for her cats when it became likely that she would not be able to care for her pets again. The last cat, Peanut, just couldn’t catch a break and spent days alone while Erika made sure he was taken care of in the lonely apartment. Then, with just a few days before the lease ran out, our Board member, Cynthia S. Wojtowycz stepped up and took Peanut into her home and started a private fb group so that Tonya could keep up with Peanut’s journey. This earth has lost a beautiful fighter but heaven has gained a pure soul. Rest in peace, Tonya, finally without pain. Here is a statement from Erika:

“I can’t find all the right words at this time. I wish we could wake up from this bad dream. My WHOLE family and some of Tonya’s friends are at a loss as we move into 2023.

We’re doing it without our Tonya.

Tonya L. Stoker passed away at 7:04pm on December 31st, 2022. She will be missed by many, but she’s no longer in pain and fighting to overcome everything that started august 25th, 2022.

She is being cremated and will go home to Tina in Ohio. We will not being doing anything at this time. Please be patient and kind as we’re trying to navigate all of this. Give Tina the time & respect to process all of this also, please. We’re Doing our best.

THANK YOU to everyone that has prayed for Tonya and helped us during this time through donations and everything. We appreciate you all more than you know. – Erika”
