8/2/23 – Yesterday we were contacted about a very sweet cat who was thrown outside when her owners moved. Her rescuer, Cynthia, noticed she was pregnant and took her in. Within a few days (this past Sunday) she gave birth to 7 beautiful babies. Although, Callie was nursing her babies, her rescuer noticed that Callie was bleeding and appeared to be in distress. Cynthia contacted Orion Animal Hospital and was told that Callie needed to be seen asap. We authorized Callie to be seen at Orion Animal Hospital and Dr. Zalac contacted me to discuss what would be required. Callie was emaciated and would need a blood transfusion in order to safely have surgery. That is scheduled for this morning and a healthy cat fostered by a staff member will be donating blood (hopefully the right type). Then the Dr. will perform exploratory surgery to determine the extent of the issue which is suspected to be a very infected uterus. Everyone has already fallen in love with this good Mama and I will get a report later and will report back on FB. Paws crossed. – diana

YOUR DONATIONS SAVE LIVES!

8/1/31 – Amber was contacted by her husband who said there was a stray kitten who almost got hit by a car running across the intersection of Warren and Conner in Detroit. The husband, at work, followed the cat who ran into a wheel well, and crawled under the car and was able to catch this frisky baby. We were contacted and asked for help. Warren needed to be fully vetted plus he appeared to have an upper respiratory infection. He was taken to a partner vet for the immediate needs and while there the rescuer pointed out a swelling in his ‘butt’ area. Warren was given his vaccines and tested. His neuter was to be scheduled at another hospital and the doctor said the “butt” was just swollen. Over the weekend the rescuer contacted us in an emergency — Warren’s rectum was totally prolapsing. The only option was emergency where he was taken on Sunday and had surgery that afternoon. Warren was released yesterday morning and the doctor told me that Warren came through the surgery well and was ready to go home. The last two photos are with Warren now safely at home with his new parents.

Without your donations and support, so many animals would never live to see another day or feel the love so many of us have for our pets. Thank you for giving us this opportunity. – diana
